Beatrice Lafferty stepped across the cables. “Major Parker there are the clouds we promised you.”

I looked up again at the dark billows hanging like shrouds above the white villa. “Clouds, Beatrice? Those are tigers, tigers with wings. We’re manicurists of the air, not dragon-tamers.”

“Don’t worry, a manicure is exactly what you’re expected to carry out.”

With an arch glance, she added: “Your men do understand that there’s to be only one subject?”

“Miss Chanel herself? Of course.” I took her arm as we walked towards the balcony overlooking the lake. “You know, I think you enjoy these snide asides. Let the rich choose their materials—marble, bronze, plasma or cloud. Why not? Portraiture has always been a neglected art.”
