Reading Room - The Beijing Scientist Affair

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

This is a perfect story to take you into the weekend.  It has so much of what makes for a good spy story, especially those featuring our guys from UNCLE.  Set in Hong Kong and Mainland China, the adventure is all about retrieving a scientist with whom Illya is acquainted.  The rest of the story, well... read it and find out.  przed has given us a tale worth telling, and reading.
