Today’s
excerpt is from Dead Silent Calm, Book #7 of the Janitors Series. Drew and Boris leave China just in time, and
let Jim know to move forward with the plan to capture or take down the mad
scientist. Enjoy and have a wonderful day.
m.j.
Back in China , Boris
and Drew were just boarding their plane for the planned return trip to
Japan—the cover story being that they would meet Steve there since he was
involved in the “movie” preparations with Joyce.
Just as the
plane was taxing down the runway for take-off, a high-ranking member of the
Chinese intelligence community was routinely going over pictures of arriving
“guests” to China
when he spotted the pictures of Boris and Drew.
He jumped up from his desk and screamed at his nearest aide, “Come over
here! Now! Do you know who these two are?”
The aide took
the offered pictures and replied, “No, sir.”
“You are looking
at two of the greatest spies of our lifetimes!
Boris Telman and Andrew F. Hollins!
Telman was KGB, known as the ‘Ghost’ since only a handful of people knew
who he really was until the so-called ‘Cold War’ between the Soviet
Union and America
dissolved. Hollins was CIA. Both have now ‘retired,’ or so everyone has
been led to believe. Them coming here
together, using false names, is clear proof that they have not
retired. Just exactly what they are
doing working together I have no idea, but I plan to find out. You, now, this instant, will work on nothing
else. Find out where they are staying
and any information you can find out about the cover story of their visit!”
“Yes, sir.”

As the aide
hurried off, Boris and Drew were getting comfortable in the First Class section
of their airliner for their trip to Tokyo ,
before heading to Atsugi to await the rest of the team, and Drew was sending a
laptop message to Steve—which was in reality intended for Jim.
The message
simply read: “Perfect site found. Looking
forward to seeing you when you return to Japan.”
When Steve
received the expected message, he handed his laptop to Jim. “Looks like we’re a go.”
Jim read the
message and nodded. “So it would seem.”
By prior
agreement, the word “perfect” in front of “site found” indicated the Biao
facility had been located and the GPS device left behind. The remainder of the message simply meant
that Boris and Drew were safely away from China and headed for Japan .
