Opis

Polo Field, Madrid, Spain WACK The sound reverberated through the air. Rodrigo, the leader of the Spanish polo team, sent the three-and-one-quarter inch high-impact plastic ball forward from his chestnut horse's legs. It shot past the grey horse ridden by the opposing Captain and landed perfectly on the mallet of his team member, Sergio. Sergio drove his horse up for the shot, swung his mallet and drove the ball through the goal posts. The crowd went wild, roaring and screaming. Rodrigo circled around to raise his arm in victory to his team. His horse suddenly stopped, and spayed his feet wide then started to violently shake. Foam rolled out of his mouth, his eyes looked about ready to pop out of his head. Rodrigo jumped down, steadied the horse by the bridle and yelled in the direction of his groom who was standing by the lines of ponies waiting on the side lines of the field, "Get the vet, quick." Rodrigo reached out to pet his favorite mount, "Steady Speed, we'll get you help." He looked at the pulsing jugular vein on the horse, "Good Lord, his heart rate is through the roof." As Rodrigo still held Speed's bridle, the horse's profusely sweating body shuddered, then staggered one step and dropped to the ground pulling Rodrigo to his knees. *** A confident, self-assured male voice spoke to him, "Rodrigo, I'm Robert Caine. Raine and Rialto called me. You need help. Tell me exactly what has happen and what your thoughts are on the events." Robert listened quietly, reading between the lines of what was said and seeing the implications of sabotage. Robert totally agreed there was more going on than met the eye. "Rodrigo, I'll have the ISOS team there in six hours. I'll call you with the particulars later. Signing off. I need to plan the mission." *** Follow the rest of the action in ESPRIT DE CORPS by Caroline Bonham.
