Chapter 1: Static in Brussels
Night had fallen over Brussels by the time Ans Møller set his handbag down in his room at the Charleroi Street inn. The old plumbing rattled, and a high-frequency whine stabbed at his eardrums—a couple arguing next door, the man lowering his voice, the woman counting out banknotes, anxiety humming right through the brickwork. He pressed a thumb to his temple. The affliction had dogged him for twenty years; back in his MI5 days it had been nothing more than background noise, but nowadays it practically served as a map.
Crossing the Galeries Saint-Hubert, cold light poured down through the vaulted glass roof. The hiss of coffee beans being ground drifted from a café, and suddenly he caught a low-frequency vibration coming from the direction of the stock exchange, like distant rolling thunder. He stopped and checked his watch—the dinner invitation was set for eight o'clock, leaving him forty minutes.
Caroline Van der BEEK was hosting a dinner at her mansion on Block Street. Dressed in a deep green silk gown, she raised her glass to welcome him. "Mr. Møller, a pleasure. You've come from Berlin?"
"I have. Thank you for having me."
She smiled, her fingertips tapping lightly against the rim of her glass. Ans heard a sharp frequency hidden within that tapping, like fingernails scraping across glass—not the sound of someone at ease, but of a tightly strung nerve. He locked the sound away in his memory.
