They have more in common then they would like to admit that’s for sure.
I love how we hear the back story through the dialogue – subtly done.

Thank you Claire.
What an entertaining dialogue with so much background. Nicely done.
Thank you, I’m glad you think so.
What a nice setup for a longer story. Well done!
Thank you. 😀
AnElephant likes spies almost as much as pies.
Well done.
Thank you, spies are a fascinating subject.
It reminds me a little of Get Smart, although there they were both operatives. I guess he’s getting out while he can. 🙂
Maybe.
Spies can be fun. Here’s hoping there isn’t another machine gun in play.
Cheers!

It wouldn’t be good if there was. Thanks for reading.
Dear Carol,
Good dialog and pace. A revealing slice of spies.
Aloha,

Thank you very much Rochelle
Not sure where this came from nor where it’s going, but love the dialogue! Excitement!
Great banter and character for 100 words! You can tell they have a future and some interesting history.
Thank you and I’m glad you think so. I’ve actually just used these characters again because people seem to like them so much.
Fun ending. Makes the reader keep on guessing.
I do like to keep people guessing.
This was well written. I hope you continue with the mission next week.
I may do that.
I give you Sword Play : https://caroljforrester.wordpress.com/2014/10/30/2667/
Entertaining. Pacy and appealing dialogue. I want to know where he’s gone.
Well I did end up following the story up and linked it to the bottom of the post.
I’m glad you found my work entertaining.
