Dr. Higgenbottom is the 4th story in our newest book. Some short excerpts forthcoming. Here, we’re at an initial interview, being considered for hire as PI’s in his ”laboratory.” I don’t think either Pete or I cared that much if we were hired. The whole thing seemed too bizarre, even for us…

I kept one eye on the deputy director, who was sitting looking very reserved near the end of the big oval table. I found out later that he was “not keen” on bringing in two outsiders to investigate what his team should be investigating. But things were not going well, and he trusted Jen’s instincts and opinion enough to at least grant us an interview. He later told Jen that “anyone else would have been ecstatic to be invited to work with the Feds on a project of this magnitude, yet we seemed a bit detached and uninterested.”

We were interested, but we made our living on fast and successful investigations and suspected this was going to be a long and shaky one. I’d worked with Feds on cases, and for the most part, meeting people like Jen was a privilege. But time was not our friend.

“Jim, Mr. Friedman and I are going to lay out the entire scenario for you and Pete, minus a few items that we’ll clear up should you guys accept the case and when your interim clearance is approved. For now, don’t worry about the money. I requisitioned a full week’s fee for you guys to be here and listen to us this morning.”

I immediately asked, “I appreciate that very much, Jen, but with all the people at your disposal, why us?”

   Just after Pete buying the newest and fastest laptops, we headed west to a quantum computer research facility. After he described the potential possibilities of quantum state computing, they didn’t seem so fast anymore. Story is: Quantum Leaptop
