Trojan Tart
Detonation Device
2008
It was going to be beautiful. The upper part of the cake was going to open like a flower in Spring, and the bomb would rise from within the cake. The system was set to explode two minutes upon opening the cake.
Elizabeth convinced New Yorkers that the cake was her farewell present, and despite warnings from the local authorities | the NYFD even investigated the cake | the gift was accepted. New Yorkers hugely celebrated the end of the siege, and when Elizabeth emerged, the city was in a drunken stupor. Via remote control, and based on cell phone technology, Elizabeth started the countdown sequence. There was no way back - two minutes later the bomb was going to explode.
