Jess pressed the emergency button that had been specially installed on the ADD. It had a little crest on it: a lion and a unicorn either side of a shield.

Lester was out of his office and by Jess's side with a speed that surprised her.

"Please not Balmoral again," he said. "There are only so many times we can afford to repair the place."

"Clarence House," Jess replied.

Personally she thought Balmoral would have been better. More remote.

Lester sighed theatrially. "I suppose, having thoroughly annoyed the current monarch, Cutter must naturally move on to the next in line."

Jess rolled her shoulders and paused for a moment. Ten more reports to check, index and file and then they would finally have caught up for the first time since convergence.

The anomaly alarm sounded. Jess sighed. That was going to generate yet more reports. She glanced across at Khan who was handling the ADD. Then she did a double take.

"Is that my road?" she asked.

"Whiteside Terrace," Khan said, "number 34 has been demolished by an Apatosaurus. I hope no one was home."

Jess felt her hands start to tremble. "No one was home. They were working late."

Connor and Jess wrestled with the signals on the anomaly detector.

"I agree with Jess," Connor said. "It might be an anomaly. It might be nothing. If it is an anomaly it's deep. The only signal we've got is from that nearby oil rig."

"What's the chance that it is an anomaly?" Lester asked.

Connor and Jess exchanged helpless looks. "Calculating probabilities for events we've rarely encountered..." Jess began.

"Your best guess please."

"Maybe 25%," Jess said doubtfully.

Lester sighed. "We'll tell the rig to keep an eye out, but won't close them down."

Deep under the waves, something moved.

ARC level 1 was for all security clearances. It wasn't really a problem, but people on level 1 did tend to assume Jess was Lester's PA.

"You should tone down your look," one of the receptionists told her. "It looks unprofessional. Could hold you back."

Jess bit back the urge to tell him she ran incredibly complex operations for an elite team so he could stuff his conservative attire where the sun didn't shine.

She did derive some private satisfaction when Lester sauntered over and said, "Not as much as being late three times this week will hold you back."
