A Prisoner in Malta
“As he passed St. Benet’s Church, he was suddenly seized by a very bad idea. What if he allied himself with this Ingram Frizer and agreed to steal the documents from this church? That way he would be privy to the Catholic plans, at least to some extent. He might even make a confidante of Frizer, which could lead to more intelligence, though the word intelligence scarcely seemed applicable to Frizer at all.
He pocketed the idea, and hurried past the church, around the corner, and into the campus ...yard. There he was struck by a scene at once familiar and foreign. Students were rushing to class, but it seemed a decade ago that Marlowe had been one of those boys. A wave of intense sadness took hold of him as he stared at the spot where he and Lopez had stood, Lopez enjoining him to leave the college for a wider world. The man who saved his father’s life was gone, and Marlowe was not the same person who had stood on that spot only a few weeks earlier.
Realizing that such thoughts might capsize him, he shoved them out of his mind, quickened his step, and hurried toward Bartholomew’s offices.MoreLess
