At some point, later, I'll have to have a word with myself about how it got to this, but sometimes your hand is forced. There're goodies, baddies, your side, their side. Winners get to go home, losers get dead.

And I've got a family I need to get back to.

This is turning into something preposterously big. The FBI, the CIA, the Secret Service, maybe Russia and perhaps my own countrymen back home – all wanting the contents of one little envelope.

The Watchman






My smile broadens irrepressibly. There's something about this country that, while I can't quite put my finger on it, I really enjoy. The expanse maybe. The freedom of choice. The sensation that you can have it all. No wonder immigrants have flocked to it in their droves, drunk on the idea of streets paved with gold.
