Gear up for what happens when the door shuts and the dialogue begins, and sometimes not in that order.Cook doesn't just peer back the curtain, he pulls it down with a look inside the Agency that often takes on the guise of Peyton Place. But we're talking about professionals, right? Hands Across the Sea is the first in a literary series.
