Katya's War (Russalka Chronicles)
“She thought it odd that they should have taken an interest in what seemed to be simply somebody cracking under the stress of war. It was tragic, of course, but it happened.
Katya was expecting the station police to deal with it, but they just took her statement while Secor sat in on the interview, occasionally throwing in questions of their own. Katya had heard that the “packaging directive” that the lieutenant – it transpired his name was “Loktev” – had been so obsessed by had indeed been anno...unced that morning, but was only coming into effect in ten days’ time. All that the directive demanded was that cargo packaging be kept unlocked to speed up security checks. That was all, and for this a man had died.
Secor seemed very uninterested in that. They just wanted to correlate her story against that of the other witnesses, confirm that it was highly unlikely that Shurygin was actually an enemy spy – Katya undiplomatically snorted in derision at such an assertion – and only seemed to grow interested in their jobs when they got around to threatening her with dire consequences should she speak to anyone about the event.MoreLess
