1. Shhhhhhh Mr Simon… We are not going to harm you…. Shhh, be quiet and you will get out of this alive, I promise you. Make a noise and we’ll leave you to suffocate… OK? That’s better… Now you’ve just regained consciousness and you find yourself tied up inside a large clear plastic sack. It’s natural that you are anxious. Listen carefully and I will explain to you what has happened…. You have been kidnapped. OK? It was me who jumped you in the hotel toilet. I held the chloroform cloth against your mouth till you passed out, and it was into my arms you collapsed when the chloroform took hold. The guy in front with the beard driving the van is Kirsty. He’s my partner. You probably recognise him. He was standing outside in the hotel corridor, dressed as a cleaner and pushing a trolly. Kirsty is not his real name but that’s want he wants me to call him at work. Kirsty and I get contracted by individuals and organisations w...
On a warm and pleasant late afternoon, Berenger sits at a table on the terrace of his favourite café bar, with his dear friend Simon. Usually when they meet, they lament for a while about the miserable state of the world, and the latest dreadful things the president is doing to make ordinary peoples’ lives more difficult.

I was at a train station in the centre of the city and needed to visit the toilet. The only one I could find had a sign outside to say it was closed, but I’d seen a gentleman go in ahead, so I thought I would follow. When I stepped inside I sa...
Part 1 : Two am and Kate is lying in bed, sifting through every detail of her plan to ensure she has forgotten nothing. When she feels ready, she turns over to face her fiancée, sleeping beside her, and whispers… Hey, George. You awake? Sorry, I can’t sleep. I need to tell you something…. Look, I know about your little fetish… I stumbled on it by accident and I want to say it’s ok… You remember last week when you called me from Frankfurt and asked me to get that password for you? Well, I went into your office and found the bit of paper it was written on, and as I was reading it out to you I leant on your desk and the screen of your laptop suddenly lit up, and there was this…. photo. I couldn’t really not see it, because, well, there it was, on the screen. After I finished talking to you, I sat at your desk and discovered it was one of about a hundred photos, in a folder named Fetish Private, that you’ve got stored on a USB...
