Belvedere is a little green hump of an island close to the golden gate bridge and connected to the mainland by a causeway, and Sam has always been very curious about it, since he can see it from his office window. Now, he has a new client from the island, but he wasn't quite prepared for the golden welcome he received on arrival... From the gold sheen of her skin, to the gold sandals, heavy oriental type gold jewelry, a gold embroidered sari, and her blue eyes, flecked with gold, Jonathan Battle's foster daughter was a welcome sight indeed.
