Harry shook his head as he wiped the lipstick off. Cynthia reminded him of the last female agent he had under his "control"-effective enough, but mainly interested in the glamor aspects of the cloak-and dagger trade - until she had gotten pregnant and married an Ambassador. At least, that wouldn't happen with Cynthia, Harry mused. But he had never heard of anyone who had wangled a G.I. mink coat before!
After taking a few moments to collect his thoughts, Harry remembered that Cynthia's previous case had not yet been closed. He wished he had never heard of transvestites - what a price he had paid for that mailing list! "Er - Cynthia - before you start on this new case, we had better wind up the old one."

Cynthia wagged her head slowly from side to side. "They knew you were sent as a spy-someone told them - but who? -only you, me, Kathy, the Head Man, and Barrett knew what your assignment was-it couldn't have leaked."

Harry's monolog was broken by the sound of girlish giggles coming from the intercom. "Kathy! You've been listening! I warned you- ." There was a moment of embarrassed silence.
