AIRBORNE

"A fateful opportunity" that opens up my eighth book is a gripping espionage thriller as far as I'm allowed to judge. Its word count is 8,288 words, while the entire book includes 11 additional short stories of suspense and adventure, which have been written since the beginning of 2012; and here is a glimpse of the novelette's plot: That's how it all began… He had a meeting with a stranger at the Café Victoria at Victoria Avenue.

The stranger a tall middle aged wasp introduced himself as James, and told the astounded Boris that he is a CIA agent; he told Boris that he is offering him the best opportunity he could ever get.

Boris hesitated and preferred to think things over before deciding whether to accept the offer or not. He was twenty two yours old then, had a Master of Arts degree in international relations and a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology, he could get a job with the Canadian foreign office.

As a graduate of psychology and international relations, and a fluent speaker of Russian and French he was a rare find for any western intelligence agency. They did not reach him haphazardly; they received a full report on his background from the Canadian foreign intelligence service, as part of the cooperation between the two famous intelligence services.
