Murgatroyd’s explanation of what it is I am to do. I stifle a cold shudder.
    “The payload is inactive,” Murgatroyd explained, “and it is not going to replicate uncontrollably. It will be supplied to you frozen, in a cryogenic container, and in this state it can survive anoxia, low temperatures, and high acceleration. However, it must be activated and transferred to an appropriate thermal carrier prior to delivery, and it must be concealed from customs inspection while it unpacks itself . . .
...
    I’m sure the Honorable and Most Adored Katherine Sorico would have told Murgatroyd exactly where he could put his payload—probably at gunpoint—but I am not so tough. I simply reminded myself that I was in desperate need of paid employment and gritted my teeth.
    Jeeves is certainly making the job worth my while. If this is the worst it has to offer, then ... we’ll see.
    From my new perspective, sitting pretty in the first-class lounge of an express liner as Mercury recedes below us, the worst threat is boredom.
