    @@@@@The islands were entering the hurricane
    @@@@@The islands were entering the hurricane season, so the
    weather was not astonishing, it was merely a delaying factorFinally, when clearance for takeoff
    was around the chronological corner, it was discovered that there was a malfunction in the far
    starboard engine; no one argued while the problem was traced, found and repairedThe elapsed
    time, however, was an additional three hours
    Except for the churning of his mind, the flight itself was uneventful for Jason; only his guilt
    interfered with his thoughts of what was before him—Paris, Argenteuil, a café with the pro
    vocative name of Le Coeur du Soldat, The Soldier’s HeartThe guilt was most painful on the short
    flight from Montserrat to Martinique when they passed over Guadeloupe and the island of Basse-
    TerreHe knew that only a few thousand feet below were Marie and his children, preparing to fly

    back to Tranquility Isle, to the husband and father who would not be thereHis infant daughter,
    Alison, would, of course, know nothing, but Jamie would; his wide eyes would grow larger and
    cloud over as words tumbled out about fishing and swimming and Marie—Christ, I can’t think
    about her! It hurts too much!
    She’d think he had betrayed her, run away to seek a violent confrontation with an enemy from
    long ago in another far-off life that was no longer their lifeShe would think like old Fontaine, who
    had tried to persuade him to take his family thousands of miles away from where the Jackal
    prowled, but neither of them understoodThe aging Carlos might die, but on his deathbed he would
    leave a legacy, a bequest that would hinge on the mandatory death of Jason Bourne—David Webb
    and his familyI’m right, Marie! Try to understand meI have to find him, I have to kill him! We
    can’t live in our personal prison for the rest of our lives!
    “Monsieur Simon?” said the stoutish well-tailored Frenchman, an older man with a closecropped
    white chin beard, pronouncing the name Seemohn
    “That’s right,” replied Bourne, shaking the hand extended to him in a narrow deserted hallway
    somewhere in Orly Airport
    “I am Bernardine, Fran?ois Bernardine, an old colleague of our mutual friend, Alexander the
    Saint
    “Alex mentioned you,” said Jason, smiling tentatively“Not by name, of course, but he told me
    you might bring up his sainthoodIt was how I’d know you were—his colleague
    “How is he? We hear stories, of course“Banal gossip, by and large
    Wounded in the futile Vietnam, alcohol, dismissed, disgraced, brought back a hero of the Agency,
    so many contradictory things
    “Most of them true; he’s not afraid to admit thatHe’s a cripple now, and he doesn’t drink, and
    he was a heroAgain stories, rumors, who can believe what? Flights of fancy out of Beijing, Hong
    Kong—some concerning a man named Jason BourneOur saint said you would need lodgings, clothes purchased en
    scène, as it were, French to the core
    “A small but varied closet,” agreed Jaso

    @@@@@
    "Ah, we have bologna, Houston, that's a go on the
    bologna, do you copy?"
    "Roger, Freemantle, we read you loud and clear
    What's your mayo situation?"
    We were a go for mayo, tooI made two bologna
    sandwiches on white - where I grew up, children
    are raised to believe mayonnaise, bologna, and
    white bread are the food of the gods - and ate
    them at the kitchen tableIn the pantry I found a
    stack of Table Talk Pies, both apple and blueberry
    88
    I began to think of changing my will in favor of
    Jack Cantori
    Almost sloshing with food, I went back to the
    living room, snapped on all the lights, and looked
    at HelloBut it was
    interestingThe scribbled afterglow had a sullen,
    furnacey quality that was startlingThe ship
    wasn't the one I'd seen, but mine was interesting
    in a spooky sort of wayIt was little more than a
    scarecrow ship, and the overlapping scribbles of
    yellow and orange had turned it into a ghost-ship,
    as well, as if that peculiar sunset were shining
    right through it
    I propped it atop the TV, against the sign reading
    THE OWNER REQUESTS THAT YOU AND YOUR GUESTS DO NOT
    SMOKE INDOORSI looked at it a moment longer,
    thinking it needed something in the foreground - a
    smaller boat, maybe, just to lend the one on the
    horizon some perspective - but I no longer wanted
    to drawBesides, adding something might fuck up
    what little charm the thing hadI tried the
    telephone instead, thinking if it wasn't working
    yet I could call Ilse on my cell, but Jack had
    been on top of that, too
    89
    I thought I'd probably get her machine - college
    girls are busy girls - but she answered on the
    first ring"Daddy?" That startled me so much that
    at first I couldn't speak and she said it again
    "Dad?"
    "Yes," I said"How did you know?"
    "The callback number's got a 941 area codeThat's
    where that Duma place isHow are you,
    kiddo?"
    "FineThe question is, how are you?"
    "I'm all rightBetter than all right, actually
    "The fellow you hired - ?"

    know you're not lying, WandaIf you say doing it our way isn't going to work, then we're going
    to have to rethink thingsI'll tell the boys they're not to bring any more souls back for now
    Besides, I think Doc's nerves are toastHe can't take much more of this
    “You could be lying to me,” I reminded him“I probably couldn't tell
    “You'll have to trust me, thenBecause I'm not going to shoot youAnd I'm not going to let
    you starve yourself, either
    I took a deep breath, trying to thinkI wasn't sure if we'd come to an accommodation or not
    Nothing made sense in this bodyI liked the people here too much
    Monstrous friends that I couldn't see in the proper light while sunk in emotion
    Jeb picked up a thick square of cornbread soaked through with stolen honey and shoved it into
    my hand
    It made a mess there, crumbling into gluey morsels that stuck to my fingersI sighed again and
    started cleaning them off with my tongue
    “That's a girl! We'll get over this rough spotThings are gonna work out here, you'll seeTry to

    Jason leaned forward over the bulging bar and ordered une bière, grateful that the bartender women rolex was
    too busy and the music too loud for the man to have overheard the conversationHowever, he was
    infinitely more grateful to Saint Alex of Conklin, whose primary advice to a field agent was to “get
    in bad with a mark first before you get in good,” the theory being that the reversal from hostility to
    amiability was far stronger for the changeBourne swallowed the beer in reliefHe had made a

    @@@@@Shortly after his thirteenth
    birthday, this formerly well-adjusted handicapped
    child became hysterical, insisting to his parents
    that his arms were "hurting and buried on a farm
    He said he could show them whereThey drove two
    days, finishing up on a dirt road in Iowa,
    somewhere between Nowhere and Nowhere in
    ParticularThe kid led them into a cornfield,
    took a sighting on a nearby barn with a MAIL POUCH
    advertisement on the roof, and insisted that they
    digThe parents did, not because they expected to
    find anything but because they hoped to set the
    child's mind and body at rest againThree feet
    down they found two skeletonsOne was a female
    child between twelve and fifteenThe other was a
    man, age undeterminedThe Adair County Coroner
    estimated these bodies had been in the ground
    approximately twelve yearsbut of course it
    could have been thirteen, which was the span of
    Kearney Jaffords's lifeNeither body was ever
    identifiedThe arms of the female child's
    skeleton had been removedThose bones were mixed
    with the bones of the unidentified man

    Fascinating as this story was, there were two
    others that interested me even more, especially
    when I thought of how I'd gone rooting through my
    daughter's purse
    I found them in an article called "They See with
    What's Missing," from The North American Journal
    of ParapsychologyIt chronicled the histories of
    two psychics, one a woman from Phoenix, the other
    a man from Río Gallegos, ArgentinaThe woman was
    missing her right hand; the man was missing his
    entire right armBoth had had several successes
    in helping the police find missing persons
    (perhaps failures as well, but these were not set
    out in the piece)
    According to the article, both amputee psychics
    used the same techniqueThey would be provided
    with a piece of the missing person's clothes, or a
    sample of his handwritingThey would shut their
    eyes and visualize touching the item with the
    missing hand (there was a huggermugger footnote
    here about something called the Hand of Glory, aka
    the Mojo Hand)The Phoenix woman would then "get
    an image," which she would relay to her
    interlocutorsThe Argentinian, however, followed
    191
    up his communings with brief, furious spates of
    automatic writing with his remaining hand, a
    process I saw as analogous to my paintings
    And, as I say, I might have doubted a few of the
    wilder anecdotes I ran across during my Internet
    explorations, but I never doubted something was
    happening to meEven without the picture of
    Carson Jones, I think I would have believed

    Townsend"Townsend's not really a cousin-cousin, you know, only a
    third cousin twice removed, but he is the direct descendent of
    Great-GreatGrandfather Ellinton, only son of an eldest son of an eldest
    sonSo he inherited that original land grant, and the Ellinton
    gambler's fever, and the Ellinton luckThey were always lucky, the
    EllintonsExcept for one thing: there's another Ellinton family
    trait, the boys are always cross-eyedTownsend married an
    extremely
    beautiful girl from a fine Philadelphia family-Philadelphia called it
    the wedding of beauty and the beast
    But the girl's father was a lawyer and a very sensible man about
    property, and Townsend was fabulously richTownsend and his wife
    settled in BaltimoreThen, of course, the War cameTownsend's wife
    went running home to her family the minute Townsend went off to join
    General Lee's armyShe was a Yankee, after all, and Townsend would
    more than likely get killedHe couldn't shoot a barn, much less a
    barn door, because of his cross eyesHowever, he still had the
    Ellinton luckHe never got anything worse than chilblains although he
    served all the way through to Appomattox
    Meanwhile, his wife's three brothers and her father were all killed,
    fighting in the Union ArmySo she inherited everything piled up by
    her careful father and his careful ancestors

    MAJOR DALLESON was in a quandaryThe General had left that morning -- the third morning of the patrol -- for Army Headquarters in an attempt to get a destroyer for the invasion of Botoi Bay, and Dalleson effectively had been left in commandColonel Newton, the CO of the 460th, and Lieutenant Colonel Conn technically ranked Dalleson, but in the General's absence Dalleson was in charge of operations, and now he had a tough problem before him
    The attack had been grinding ahead for five days, had bogged down only yesterdayThey had expected it, for the advance had been ahead of schedule, and it was probable the Japanese would increase their resistanceIn consideration of this, Cummings had told him to mark time"Things are going to be quiet, DallesonI suspect there'll be an attack or two from the Japs but nothing to worry aboutJust keep up your pressure on the front as a wholeIf I can waggle a destroyer or two, we'll be able to knock off the campaign in a week

    which we have given with a reasonable hope of its contributing to
    the comfort of a friendWhy should she lose a pleasure which she
    has shewn herself so deserving of?”
    “If it had been given to me in the first instance,” said Fanny, “I
    should not have thought of returning it; but being her brother’s
    present, is not it fair to suppose that she would rather not part with
    it, when it is not wanted?”
    “She must not suppose it not wanted, not acceptable, at least: and
    its having been originally her brother’s gift makes no difference; for
    as she was not prevented from offering, nor you from taking it on
    that account, it ought not to prevent you from keeping itNo doubt
    it is handsomer than mine, and fitter for a ballroom
    “No, it is not handsomer, not at all handsomer in its way, and, for
    my purpose, not half so fitThe chain will agree with William’s
    cross beyond all comparison better than the necklace
    “For one night, Fanny, for only one night, if it be a sacrifice; I am
    sure you will, upon consideration, make that sacrifice rather than
    give pain to one who has been so studious of your comfortMiss
    Crawford’s attentions to you have been—not more than you were
    justly entitled to—I am the last person to think that could be, but
    they have been invariable; and to be returning them with what must
    have something the air of ingratitude, though I know it could never
    have the meaning, is not in your nature, I am sureWear the necklace,
    as you are engaged to do, to-morrow evening, and let the chain,
    which was not ordered with any reference to the ball, be kept for
    commoner occasionsI would not have the shadow
    of a coolness between the two whose intimacy I have been observing
    with the greatest pleasure, and in whose characters there is so
    much general resemblance in true generosity and natural delicacy as
    to make the few slight differences, resulting principally from situation,

    again and again, that she was one of his two dearest, before the
