Cloak of Darkness
“Claudel, before locking up, had activated its alarm system: anyone attempting to enter it would set off a blast of sound that would bring out the fire truck itself. He had left behind his flying jacket, after removing a lighter that could photograph, a pair of eyeglasses that could amplify conversation from fifty feet away, a cigarette pack that could communicate within a three-mile radius. He was now wearing his tweed jacket that could take his neat automatic without bulging a pocket. His good... arm carried Bernie’s lightweight bag. (Duplicates of lighter, glasses, cigarette pack; a hairbrush whose back slid open to hold useful cipher lists; a talcum-powder tin that held spare film; and ordinary toilet articles such as toothpaste and brushes and shaving kit, useful for emergency stop-overs. Also, infrared binoculars that could be used by night, a similar mini-telescope, and—of course—a book on bird-watching.) Renwick was carrying the radio in its leather case, cut out in front to show an honest face, a portable that would keep a traveller abreast of the news and relax him with music.MoreLess
