Robert listened to the phone ring again and again. It was six a.m. in Washington. I’m always waking the old man up, Robert thought.

The Admiral answered on the sixth ring. “Hello …”

“Admiral, I…”

“Robert! What …?”

“Don’t say anything. Your phone is probably bugged. I’m going to make this fast. I just wanted to tell you not to believe anything they’re saying about

me. I’d like you to try to find out what’s going on. Imay need your help later.”

“Of course. Anything I can do, Robert.”

“I know.”

Robert replaced the receiver. No time for a trace. He saw a blue Fiat pull up outside the bar. Pier was at the wheel.

“Move over,” Robert said. “I’ll drive.”

Pier made room for him as he slid in behind the wheel.

When I look back after a few hours I think I must have been mad for the time, for I behaved much as a rat does in a trap. When, however, the conviction had come to me that I was helpless I sat down quietly, as quietly as I have ever done anything in my life, and began to think over what was best to be done. I am thinking still, and as yet have come to no definite conclusion. Of one thing only am I certain. That it is no use making my ideas known to the Count. He knows well that I am imprisoned, and as he has done it himself, and has doubtless his own motives for it, he would only deceive me if I trusted him fully with the facts. So far as I can see, my only plan will be to keep my knowledge and my fears to myself, and my eyes open. I a
