but @@@@@“It’s a museum now and a very fine one, but every now and then a zealot—usually foreign—holds a small serviceNo one interferes, which, of course, the zealots want us to do The screen became murky again, the vibrating focus briefly and wildly swaying; the camcorder had moved inside the cathedral as the agent operating it was jostled by the crowdsThen it became Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 370 steady, held perhaps against a pillarThe focus now was on an elderly man, his hair white in contrast to the lightweight black raincoat he was wearingHe was walking down a side aisle pensively glancing at the succession of icons and the higher majestic stained-glass windows “Rodchenko,” said the peasant—colonel, his voice guttural The man on the screen proceeded into what appeared to be a large stone corner of the cathedral where two thick pedestaled candles threw moving shadows against the wallsThe video camera jerkily moved upward, the agent, again perhaps, standing on a portable stool or a hastily obtained boxThe picture grew suddenly more detailed, the figures larger as the zoom lens was activated, thrusting through the crowds of touristsThe white-haired subject approached another man, a priest in priestly garb—balding, thin, his complexion dark “It’s him!” cried Bourne“It’s Carlos!” Then a third man appeared on the screen, joining the other two, and Conklin shouted “Jesus! “he roared as all eyes were riveted on the television set“Hold it there!” The KGB commissar instantly complied with his remote; the picture remained stationary, shaky but constant “The other one!

A younger, much younger self, and there was another figure, in uniform, pacing like a caged ferret back and forth in front of the chair, savagely berating the man then known as Delta OneBourne gasped, his eyes frozen on the television screen as he realized he was staring at an older version of that angry, pacing figure in his mind’s eye“A courtroom in a base camp north of Saigon,” he whispered “It’s Ogilvie,” said Conklin, his voice distant, hollowMy God, they did link upMedusa found the Jackal!” Robert Ludlum ??

But these Did you know you could do it?" "NoI started thinking something might be there when I was at the place on Lake Phalen, but it's gone farther than I thought it would I thought of Wireman Looks West and the mouthless, noseless Candy Brown and thought I'd just uttered the understatement of the century "Eddie, will you let me do the rest of the invitations the way I did the sample?

Which was why to his astonishment and alarm @@@@@ Which was why to his astonishment and alarm he heard the absolutely adorable black female immigration clerk say to him after hanging up a telephone, “Would you be so kind, sir, as to come with me, please?” Her lovely face, lilting voice and perfect smile did nothing to allay the former judge’s fearsFar too many extremely guilty criminals had such assets“Is there something wrong with my passport, young lady?” “Not that I can see, sir “Then why the delay? Why not simply stamp it and allow me to proceed?” “Oh, it is stamped and entry is permitted, sir?” “Please come with me, sir They approached a large glass-enclosed cubicle with a sign on the left window, the gold letters announcing the occupant: DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF IMMIGRATION SERVICESThe attractive clerk opened the door and, again smiling, gestured for the elderly visitor to go insidePrefontaine did so, suddenly terrified that he would be searched, the money found, and all manner of charges leveled against himHe did not know which islands were involved in narcotics, but if this was one of them the thousands of dollars in his pockets would be instantly suspectExplanations raced through his mind as the clerk crossed to the desk handing his passport to the short, heavyset deputy of immigrationThe woman gave Brendan a last bright smile and went out the door, closing it behind herBrendan Patrick Pierre Prefontaine,” intoned the immigration official reading the passport “Not that it matters,” said Brendan kindly but with summoned authority“However, the ‘Mister’ is usually replaced with ‘Judge’—as I say, I don’t believe it’s relevant under the circumstances, or Robert Ludlum ?? THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM 69 perhaps it is, I really don’t knowDid one of my law clerks make an error? If so, I’ll fly the whole group down to apologize “Oh, not at all, sir—Judge,” replied the uniformed wide-girthed black man with a distinct British accent as he rose from the chair and extended his hand over the desk“Actually, it is I who may have made the error “Come now, Colonel, we all do occasionally Brendan gripped the official’s hand“Then perhaps I may be on my way? There’s someone here I must meet “That’s what he said!” Brendan released the hand“I beg your pardon?” “I may have to beg yours… The confidentiality, of course “The what? Could we get to the point, please?” “I realize that privacy,” continued the official, pronouncing the word as privvissy, “is of utmost importance—that’s been explained to us—but whenever we can be of assistance, we try to oblige the Crown “Extremely commendable, Brigadier, but I’m afraid I don’t understand | | Friday, December 10th, 2010 | | 6:52 am |

One other thing occurred in my other life @@@@@ One other thing occurred in my other life before I slipped through that door, thoughIt was what happened to Monica Goldstein's Jack Russell Terrier, Gandalf 40 viii If you've been picturing my convalescent retreat as a lakeside cottage standing in splendid isolation at the end of a lonely dirt road in the north woods, you better think again - we're talking your basic suburbiaOur place by the lake stood at the end of Aster Lane, a paved street running from East Hoyt Avenue to the waterOur closest neighbors were the Goldsteins In the middle of October, I finally took Kathi Green's advice and began to walkThese were not the Great Beach Walks I took later, and I came back from even these short outings with my bad hip crying for mercy (and more than once with tears standing in my eyes), but they were steps in the right directionI was returning from one of these walks when MrsFevereau hit Monica's dog I was three-quarters of the way home when the Fevereau woman went past me in her ridiculous mustard-colored HummerAs always, she had her cell phone in one hand and a cigarette in the other; as always she was going too fastI barely 41 noticed, and I certainly didn't see Gandalf dash into the street up ahead, concentrating only on Monica, coming down the other side of the street in Full Girl ScoutI was concentrating on my reconstructed hipAs always near the end of my short strolls, this so-called medical marvel felt packed with roughly ten thousand tiny points of broken glass Then tires yowled, and a little girl's scream joined them: "GANDALF, NO!" For a moment I had a clear and unearthly vision of the crane that had almost killed me, the world I'd always lived in suddenly eaten up by a yellow much brighter than MrsFevereau's Hummer, and black letters floating in it, swelling, getting larger: LINK-BELT Then Gandalf began to scream, too, and the flashback - what DrKamen would have called a recovered memory, I suppose - was goneUntil that afternoon in October four years ago, I hadn't known dogs could scream I broke into a lurching, crabwise run, pounding the sidewalk with my red crutchI'm sure it would have appeared ludicrous to an onlooker, but no one 42 was paying any attention to meMonica Goldstein was kneeling in the middle of the street beside her dog, which lay in front of the Hummer's high, boxy grilleHer face was white above her forestgreen uniform, from which a sash of badges and medals hungThe end of this sash was soaking in a spreading pool of Gandalf's bloodFevereau half-jumped and half-fell from the Hummer's ridiculously high driver's seat | | Tuesday, December 7th, 2010 | | 6:45 am |
