Chapter 2: Tough Talk
Operation Watchtower is set in the wake of 9/11. Follow Nicholas Grayson, a haunted FBI agent; Belle Flower, a runaway from a family of circus freaks; and Senator Bryce Wexley, a man replaced by a better version of himself. What begins as investigation becomes revelation. What is known cannot be unmade.
Wexley watches his doppelgänger on tv while the world burns. Homeless and hunted, he eats a meal at Wong’s diner, man. Conspiracies and visions gnaw at him, and he feels the eyes upon him. Belle flees the man in gray. She waits at a library ragged till Red finds her. They speak of years lost and the towers burning. Sirens rise. He hides her under the dash and drives her toward his trailer. Grayson comes to San Diego. Agent Guthrie meets him. He calls his sister, answers his shrink, speaks with fellow jarhead, Boyd, of Mercer the psychopath. At Belle’s place, he finds a doorman slain, a home invasion, the air thick with loss. A jade Bronco tears away into the sunlit street like a beast unchained. They are all unaware how deeply they’re entangled in something monstrous and occult.
