of us, together."
Her gaze didn't leave the tiles at the end of the bath.
I lifted her out and put a towel around her.
"You're a big girl now. You can dry yourself." I took the hairbrush
from the bag and dragged Kelly into the bedroom.
"Once you've done that, brush your hair, and make sure you're all dry
and dressed when I come back. We might have to go somewhere.
Don't open the door for anyone, OK?"
There was no answer. I pulled out the phone jack and left. I was
feeling apprehensive as I walked across the parking lot. I'd done nothing
wrong, so why were they cutting me off? Was the Firm going to stitch me up?
I started to go through all the scenarios in my head. Did they think I was
the killer? Were they cutting away now as a prelude to denying everything?
I got to the phone, dialed, and the same thing happened. I slowly put
down the receiver. A low wall made up part of the entrance to the hotel; I
went and sat down. I needed to think hard. It didn't take long to decide
that there was only one option, and that was to phone the embassy. I'd be
breaking every rule in the book. I wouldn't even bother going through all
the protocol; I dialed 411 and got the number. I got straight through.
"Hello, British Embassy. How may I help you?"
"I want to talk to LOSO."
"Excuse me?"
"LOSO. Liaison officer, special operations."
"I'm sorry, we don't have an extension number for that name."
"Get hold of the defense attache and tell him there's some body on the
phone who wants to speak to LOSO. It's really important. I need to speak to
him now."
"Hold on a moment." She put me on hold and I waited.
Another woman came on the line.
"Hello, how may I help you?"
"I want to talk to LOSO."
"I'm sorry, we have no one of that appointment."
"Then put me through to the DA."
"Sorry, the defense attache is not here. Can I help you?
Would you like to give me a name and contact number?"
I said, "Listen, this is the news. I want LOSO or the DA to pass this
on. I've tried to phone in on my PIN number. My PIN number's
two-four-two-two, and I'm getting blanked off.
I'm in a really bad situation at the moment and I need some help. Tell
LOSO or the DA that if I don't make contact with London, I'm going to
expose what I've got in my security blanket. I will call back in three
hours' time."
The woman said, "Excuse me, could you repeat that?"
"No, you're recording the message will be understood.
All you've got to do is pass that on to the DA or LOSO, I don't give a
fuck which one. Tell them I'll call London on the PIN line in three hours'
time."
I put the phone down. The message would get to them.
Chances were the DA or LOSO was listening anyway.
Some of the operations I'd been on had been so dirty that no one would
