'We've got a small problem, Thornton. An internal problem.' He paused. 'One of our senior field officers has gone missing.' Thornton understood. 'Small' meant 'Keep it discreet.' He'd talk to a few people, invent some plausible, probably bureaucratic reason, check records. Pull back if anyone grew too interested...He knew that Fisher, the missing man, was good. Good enough sometimes to do things his way, not the head office way, and get away with it. No money troubles, no indiscretions. Balanced. No question of a defection. But Thornton was about to enter a maze of lies, obstructions and deception surrounding an innocent German girl with extraordinary powers, a KGB and CIA plot and counter-plot, an East/West kidnapping - and a spy with a conscience.
