Olivia turned to face her new partner.

He was blond and handsome, with a strong, square jaw and compelling blue eyes. She smiled and took his extended hand. It was large and warm, the broad palm slightly sweaty. She could tell that she made him a little nervous, and that he was working very hard to keep his gaze from dipping down to the open collar of her ivory silk blouse.

She held his hand and his gaze a few seconds longer than necessary, her smile shifting into an unspoken challenge.

This was certainly going to be interesting.

FRINGE
THE ZODIAC PARADOX

by Christa Faust

In 1971, university students Walter Bishop and William Bell use an exotic chemical compound to link their subconscious minds. Unexpectedly, they open a rip in space through which comes a menace unlike any our world has ever seen—The Zodiac Killer. His singular goal is death, and it falls to Bishop, Bell, and Nina Sharp to stop him.

Formed to investigate events that lie beyond the realm of possibility, the Fringe Division is summoned when the unimaginable occurs. Armed with experimental technology, special agent Olivia Dunham, “fringe” scientist Walter Bishop, and his son Peter Bishop safeguard the very fabric of our reality.
