Napoleon Solo was trying to ignore that feeling in the pit of his stomach, one that continued to gnaw at him for the last fifteen minutes.He was waiting on the outskirts of a small warehouse, a THRUSH satrap to where his partner had disappeared inside.

The Russian’s plan was to set charges and beat feet out, and now Napoleon waited for him to emerge before it all went up into smithereens.
