is to become the real thing.
-
Every hour, every day, whether you're in public or alone,
-

-

-

and the line between fiction and fact becomes blurry.
-
Eventually, the question isn't
-
whether the cover I.D. will attract the target.
-
It's whether there will be enough of you left
-
to complete the mission when it does.
