Last Updated: March 20, 2023
Prologue: Dexter Tramaine leaned back against the cushions of the seat, exhausted after travelling across 12 time zones without stopping except for refueling the company plane. The emergency telephone call the afternoon before nearly tore his heart out. Jenkins, his Grandfather's butler/friend/confident for as long as Dexter could remember, told him in a hushed and quavering voice that his Grandfather was dying and for him to come home immediately. Tears began falling from his eyes, Grandpa, the only Father he had ever known, the man he loved more than life itself was dying. Dexter's parents had been killed by an intruder shortly after he had been born, Grandpa had rescued him from the Child Protective Services and raised him, loved him and made him everything that he was or would ever be. Dr. Dexter Alexander Tramaine, President and Principal Stockholder of Tramaine Industries, Inventor, Scientist and Financier was dying and Dexter Robert Tramaine was rushing to see him before he was gone! He had told the Company Pilot to stop ONLY to refuel, London to New York to San Francisco to Honolulu and finally to Hilo!
