The Paris Agent

Paris, February 1944

Eloise has still not gotten information from the butcher’s apprentice. One of her contacts, Basile, instructs her to go to a garage and ask to hire a bicycle using a coded phrase. She follows two of the garage workers to a café, and another man asks her for a drink. He talks about himself at great length while she eavesdrops on the conversation of the men at the next table. When the garage workers leave, she ditches her companion and follows them. She tracks down the wife of the garage owner, who was recently arrested, and gives her money in exchange for information. The woman tells Eloise to meet with her sister-in-law, Nathalie. Nathalie tells Eloise that their mutual friend Basile has been organizing a resistance group.
