The Reluctant Agent
A Compelling Story of Espionage
Chapter 13
The Safe Cracker
Margaret was essentially true to her word, only calling on Will with matters she
regarded as urgent. The focus of the work as time progressed however, changed
for the worst. Adam became more proficient with the electronics, but instead of
a gradual detachment occurring as Will had anticipated, he was getting more
involved in extracting information from places and people in situations that could
only be described as difficult, and sometimes downright dangerous.
All the equipment necessary to do the work was supplied very efficiently by
Adam, and for this very reason Will was getting less respite from the organization
than he had enjoyed before the change of focus. There was very little he could do
except to stick to his policy of objecting whenever he could, and changing the
modus operandi to try and keep himself out of trouble, when a job got underway.
