When the Lysander was finally able to fly over the Channel, the reception committee now included three locals.

The drop was also decently accurate. Kitty and Marie rushed to the canisters and cut the chutes, then quickly buried the silk and string in the woods. Meanwhile, the men loaded the canisters into handcarts and into a bicycle trailer and parted ways. Between the seven of them, they had found places to hide the stores on various properties, but one member of Sculptor went with a local to conduct a full inventory.

Kitty went to the processing building with the lavender grower. Together, they popped open the two canisters they’d taken with them and Kitty let out a low whistle. She had the most precious stores: warm clothing, blankets, several Sten guns, and cigarettes.

And then the Frenchman raised the lid on the next canister. There was a hint of almond in the air and he unwrapped one of the packages.

“Ça alors!” he exclaimed.

“Holy smokes.” Kitty laughed, delighted. “What a cache!”

She was looking at Nobel 808 explosives. A lot of them. They were green plasticine, easy to mold and easy to use.

The Frenchman pointed at the stash with his cigarette. “Boom.”

Kitty waved him off, joking about the dangers of smoking. There were also chargers, wires and everything else they would need to perform Marie’s favorite hobby.

Raymond had told each of them to keep an eye out for the shipment and waited until everyone returned to the lavender farm to announce her find.

Marie tiptoed around the canister. “How? How are we supposed to deliver all of this to the gallery?”

Raymond rubbed his hands over his head.

The farmer raised his eyebrows and looked away, as if to say, “Not my problem.”

“I can do this,” Kitty said.

“How?” Raymond probed.

“I have an idea.” She waved Marie over and whispered into her ear. “You know those underpants I hate wearing?”

Marie pulled back, her eyes and smile widening. They both looked into the canister. Marie snapped her fingers at Raymond to make him back away and said, “This is ladies’ stuff now.”
