PROLOGUE The only memory she had of love was the elusive scent of perfume she could never identify, and the vague comforting male presence leaning over her as they tucked her into the safe, familiar bed. Did she remember them smiling? She could never see their features; even as she lay dreaming the moment, over and over again, she tried to warn the little girl: look at them! But the sweet memory was already passing, and helplessly she waited for the dream to begin its inexorable plunge into nightmare. They always paused at the door and turned back to her. She saw them shrouded in the innocent sleepy gaze of a child who believes that love will always be there, as her own little bed and the twining pink roses on the walls of her room would always be there. In her dream, she screamed at them, "Don't! Don't turn out the light! If you don't turn out the light, maybe it won't happen this time: ... " But it was always the same. The screams never left her throat; they couldn't hear her, she couldn't see them clearly, They could not be recalled. A moment's quiet, sleep. And then the little girl woke to the fearful rumbling of a giant beneath the earth, sad and mournful sounds that echoed inside her head and far away in the distance outside her window. She lay with eyes wide open, listening. Dawn had just begun, and her room was strange to her in the eerie light she had never seen before, neither night nor day .

" ALLEGED INVOLVEMENT IN ERASING JFK'S WHITE HOUSE TAPES: " 'We're erasing the tapes,' he said. " 'What do you mean?' I asked.
