Berlin

* * *

Miles fought down the sense of frustration that was threatening to overwhelm him and instead paced the room, his eyes roaming over the different feeds from the various CCTV cameras around the hotel.

Knox had found three more analysts to work with him, but had been reluctant to part with more from the Middle East section.

‘The fewer people that know about this, the better,’ he’d said. ‘Let’s keep this close.’

Miles appreciated what the Section chief was saying, but it didn’t help the fact that he was understaffed and desperate to find Eva, Alex and Nathan. Worryingly, there was no sign of the assassin who had killed five of the Section’s agents, either.

The only lead they had so far for him was a grainy feed from the hotel bar’s CCTV camera. The images were saved onto a different server than the rest of the hotel, and were recorded at one minute intervals rather than continuously. Greg was running the images through a software application to try and clean them up.

‘Who’s checking car rental companies?’

One of the new analyst’s hands shot up in the air, although his eyes didn’t leave the screen in front of him. ‘Nothing to report. I’ll keep monitoring it, but at this stage it looks like they’ve use another mode of escape.’

‘Nothing on the taxi radios, either,’ said Jason.

‘Well, they won’t have got far on foot, and Eva wouldn’t risk it with Alex in tow,’ said Miles. ‘That leaves the train station, subways, and bus stations. Get on with it.’

He ran a hand through his hair, knowing he was taking out his frustration on the team, but unable to stop himself. His mind raced while he tried to fathom who had found out that Eva was in the hotel before she’d even arrived, let alone how they had found out she was in Berlin. The flight plan hadn’t been logged until the RAF plane was an hour north of Alicante the previous night.

Desperate, he returned to his desk and began to scroll through the reports that were coming in.

He cursed himself for being so complacent. He should have known that whoever organised the attack on the condo in Cyprus wouldn’t stop there. Somebody wanted Eva and Alex dead, and was prepared to do anything to ensure that outcome.

Guilt washed over him. He had no doubt Eva could look after herself, but he had put Nathan in that situation and the man had undergone no current field training. Not for situations like this. In his haste to find answers, he had put three lives at risk.

‘Miles? I think I’ve got something.’

His head jerked up from his screen at the sound of Greg’s voice, and he made his way over to the other man’s desk.

Greg pointed at the frozen image on the screen. ‘I found him.’

Miles leaned forward. On the screen, Greg clicked through a series of images. A man dressed in a black suit entered the bar at two minutes past eleven, sat on a bar stool and twisted around so that he could see the lobby.
