Greek's Ethiopian mistress had once been a model, and was far from camera shy. Third, the<br />

couple ate out at least three times a week, often at the same French restaurant.<br />

It wasn't clear which, if any, of those pieces of information would prove to be important, but 47<br />

was more than satisfied with the results of his preliminary outing as he made his way back to the<br />

hotel. The next couple of hours were spent transferring the pictures he had taken to the laptop,<br />

going over them one by one, and learning as much as he could about the Greek's security<br />

precautions.<br />

And it was during that process that 47 began to entertain new doubts. Not about his ability to<br />

penetrate the security cordon, and get close enough to kill Thorakis, but about the wisdom of<br />

doing so without more proof. The penalty for mistakenly assassinating a board member would<br />

be severe indeed.<br />

So, what to do? The answer–or so it seemed to Agent 47–was to make all the necessary<br />

preparations, but stop just short of killing Thorakis. Then, at the very last moment, he would<br />

call Nu and tell him to leak a lie, and wait to see what occurred.<br />

If the shipping magnate was the mole, he would immediately contact the Puissance Treize and<br />

ask for help. Thereby signaling his guilt.<br />

The plan was somewhat convoluted, but necessarily so, given the situation. More<br />

reconnaissance would be necessary, but thanks to the information he had gleaned earlier in the<br />

day, he felt reasonably sure that he would eventually find a way to enter the mansion.<br />

The killing itself–should it become necessary–couldn't be done overtly. A homicide investigation<br />

might lead back to his employers. And it might alert the Puissance Treize that The Agency was<br />

onto them. Something best left until the reprisals were over, and the enemy was burying its<br />

dead.<br />

That suggested an “accident” of some sort. The kind everyone would accept. But how?<br />

That was a problem the assassin would have to work out on his own.<br />

The Bon Appétit was everything 47 expected it to be, which was to say a Portuguese imitation<br />

of a French restaurant, complete with Eiffel <strong>To</strong>wer wallpaper, candlelit tables, and an imperious<br />

staff. According to the information provided by Fazio, Thorakis and his mistress typically ate<br />

dinner at 8:00, so Agent 47 arrived at 7:30. The Nikon was concealed in a shopping bag.<br />

Having been scrutinized by the maître d', and clearly been found wanting, the man with the bald<br />

pate and protruding paunch was shown to a tiny table located right next to the kitchen. Which,<br />

ironically enough, was the sort of spot Agent 47 often chose for himself so he could escape out<br />

the back should the necessity arise.<br />

Indeed, it was a terrible table, since the heavily laden waiters had a tendency to brush it as they<br />

came and went, not to mention all the noise that emanated from the kitchen itself. However, 47
