Chapter 15

Operation Neqab

The blare of honking yellow cab horns woke me up in the morning. Apparently, they could be heard even from the 20th floor. Ah, New York. On account of the fact that I had forgotten to draw the curtains closed properly, the morning light that bathed the room made it so that I could not put myself back to sleep. Once I walked over to the curtains and looked down at the checkered taxis that were making all the noise, I decided to pull them all the way open instead of closing them. I glanced at the digital clock on the bedside table. It was 9:30 am. On a Friday morning the Tavern wouldn’t be open for another hour and a half. I got dressed in clothes that were elegant enough to dine there but wore shoes comfortable enough to take a walk across Central Park before doing so. I stopped to say hello to the morning doorman on my way out. “I’m Dana Avalon, the owner of the penthouse apartment,” I said, introducing myself. “So you’re the mystery woman everyone’s been talking about.” Just great, I thought. The last thing I needed was to draw too much unwanted attention to myself. But such are the hazards when you have corporate proxies purchase a million-dollar penthouse apartment at a prime location in Manhattan for you, without ever showing up yourself. “No big mystery — Tom, is it? I was just tied up on business abroad.”

Before heading into the park, I went around the corner to check out the DeLorean. Damn impressive. Everything was to specifications. With its matt black finish and black leather interior, the thing looked like some kind of futuristic Batmobile when its door wings were popped open. I probably should have gone for a more low-key car, but I just couldn’t resist. A time traveler has to drive a DeLorean, even if no one would understand why for another five years.

When I was done playing with the car, I walked across the street and entered Central Park through the gate that led up to Tavern on the Green. It was 10 am. They were still setting up. So I headed toward the Upper East Side. I walked north across Sheep Meadow to the Bethesda Terrace, where I lingered for a while taking in the sculpture of the angel and walking to the water’s edge for a spectacular view of the Loeb Boathouse. There were already a few people out row boating on the lake. Then, I walked up along the East Drive, past the Conservatory pool and visited the bronze Alice in Wonderland sculptures, where I watched a couple of children who were too young to be in school climbing up and down the mushrooms and onto Alice’s dress, or playing with the Mad Hatter, with their babysitters making sure that they didn’t fall.

I continued on up the East Drive, until I reached the obelisk across from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Here I lingered a while
