When frost bloomed across the glass forty seconds apart, he set his instruments down and refused to embalm a subject that was still drawing breath. What became of the creature once the military realized it was an asset they could keep rather than wreckage to bury? And what happens when someone finally answers the receiver in the dark and begins to count?
