Spies…

You may wonder What brought a Bookkeeper with the British Civil Service to foreign soil surrounded on all sides by intrigue and double crossing scallywags? I could be waking up to my morning cuppa tea, listening for air raid sirens and getting ready for a usual day of gossip, listening to the radio and eating my marmite on toast. My air raid shelter keeps me safe..somewhat and we can all laugh at the gasmasks that are woefully inadequate for keeping a real gas attack away. My food rations are pitiful but I’d even trade in your last night’s French champagne and Beluga caviar for a little bit of ordinary…Bangers and Mash.

“Berlin. What a garrison of spies! what a cabinet full of useless, liquid secrets, what a playground for every alchemist, miracle worker and rat piper that ever took up the cloak.”

John LeCarre quotes (English Writer, b.1931)

I am sure I have been followed… My contact was acting strange and I have a funny feeling all is not what it seems. What exactly am I carrying ??? Good thing I am an expert markswoman and can fly the plane myself…. If you want a job done properly….. I will ignore the betrayal, he is not worth it. I trust my colt .45 more than that sad excuse for a man ….handsome sad excuse.

In every war zone that I've been in, there has been a reality and then there has been the public perception of why the war was being fought. In every crisis, the issues have been far more complex than the public has been allowed to know. John Le Carre

I knew you were too curious…bad sign for a field agent. It should have occurred to me right away that you were playing both sides! You may wonder what brought me, a simple civil servant here, now and with a gun pointing at your heart, although I know you don’t have one…a heart that is. You may wonder…but then I’d have to kill you.

You should have died when I killed you. John le Carre
