Chapter 15 - The Unsealed Vault in Manhattan
The bronze plaque swung open, revealing an oiled steel container containing a set of micro-films and a gold master keycard.

Vivian snatched the gold keycard and micro-films, shoving them inside her inner uniform pocket.
“To the SUV! Now!” Vivian commanded, ushering her team back toward the vehicle.
