CHAPTER 32

BND SAFE HOUSE

URSUS, POLAND

THE GERMAN CONVOY swept into the town of Ursus from the northeast. With flashing police cars, fire trucks, and ambulances racing past in the opposite direction, Angela Wolff and her BND team roared down the aleja Solidanosci and then Wolska at over seventy miles per hour before turning right onto Dzwigowa, taking the exit onto Swierszcza, and navigating a series of left hand turns that led to the BND safe house at Stanislawa Wojciechowskiego 9. A bank of heavy garage doors opened up like a drawbridge to a Medieval Castle. The fleet of Land Rovers drove inside and screeched to a halt. The doors rumbled closed again, leaving no evidence of their entry, as if the convoy had been swallowed by the jaws of Jonah’s whale.

“Take them to the holding room,” snapped Wolff to Dieter as she stepped from one of the Rovers. “I have to take this call from Walther.”

She held up her vibrating secure mobile as, one after another, car doors slammed shut and Stanislaw Pularchek and Natalie Perkins were escorted from the Land Rover at gun point.

“You shouldn’t be doing this, Angela my dear,” said Pularchek. “My people will come for us, which means you and your men have only a few minutes to live.”

The face of Johannes Krupp and two other of her team members showed visible alarm. “Don’t listen to him. He’s just trying to scare you,” she snapped. Then into her phone, she said, “I apologize, Walther, but I’m going to have to call you back.” She punched off abruptly to her boss’s vehement objections.

Pularchek laughed derisively. She stepped up to him and fiercely met his gaze.

“I can’t believe your boss Kluge and the chancellor have authorized this insane scheme of yours. Surely, they realize that it is illegal for a state to abduct an individual from the territory of another state without requesting permission, or following normal extradition procedures. In fact, this kidnapping is not only a violation of Polish law, but a violation of international law—in particular the prohibition against arbitrary detention. You can’t use kidnapping to circumvent the formal extradition process, Angela my dear. You know that, and so do your bosses.”

“Are you finished?”

“Not quite. You are in Poland now, not Germany. You should have thought this through before you rushed into that restaurant. Kidnapping me was a serious mistake, but not nearly as bad as taking young Natalie here.”

“You weren’t kidnapped. You are a criminal and will be tried in Germany for crimes committed within our borders.”

“I can see the pressure is getting to you. As a matter of fact, if I didn’t know better, I would say you look a bit like Herr Goebbels at the Chancellery at the very end. Not a pretty sight, I must say.”

“You are going to give me what I want, and if you do I will let you live. That is my promise to you. But what I can’t guarantee is what shape you’ll be in.” She turned on a heel and looked sharply at Dieter.
