    “A mole?”
    “Not for a minuteA KGB officer whose first priority never changes? The Americanized village or town where the Jackal was initially trained in
    Russia?”
    “Half trained and escaped from before he could be shot as a maniacOnly, it’s not just an
    American compound—that’s a mistake we make so oftenThere are British and French
    compounds, too, also Israeli, Dutch, Spanish, West German and God knows how many others
    Dozens of square miles cut out of the forests along the Volkhov River, dotted with settlements so
    that you’d swear you were in a different country with each one you entered—if you could get
    inside, which you couldn’tLike the Aryan breeding farms, the Lebensborn of Nazi Germany,
    Novgorod is one of Moscow’s most closely guarded secretsThey want the Jackal as badly as Jason
    Bourne does
    “And you think this KGB fellow will cooperate, keep us informed about Conklin if they make
    contact?”
    “I can tryAfter all, we have a common objective, and I know Alex would accept him because
    he knows how much the Soviets want Carlos on the dead list
    Holland leaned forward in his chair“I told Conklin I’d help him any way I could as long as it
    didn’t compromise our going after MedusaHe’ll be landing in Paris within the hourShall I

    “Why not hire them all?” asked the director, smiling
    “I believe seven are already on the payroll, sir,” answered the deputy director, his demeanor
    serious, in contrast to his arched eyebrowsMorris Panov, his legs unsteady, was helped down the metal steps of the diplomatically
    cleared jet by a strapping marine corporal in starched summer khakis carrying his suitcase“How

    I would like you to see, Signor Maggiore, our work on the problems of dysentery in the successful African campaignWe have discovered a new series of sanitary measures 73% more effective in avoiding the dreadful, the malign propensities of such a disease
    The summer heat is stiflingDespite the lecture by the Italian Colonel he suffers from diarrhea, and is plagued by a severe coldHe spends a miserable week in bed, abysmally tiredA letter follows from his brother-in-law

    I think it's a shame to ruin the understandable elation you must be feeling now after such a neat job in Paris, but there's something I really ought to tell youMargaret, you know, has been down in Washington with me for the past two weeks, and to put it as kindly as possible, she has been acting very oddThere's a certain abandonment about her which is not proper to her age; I must confess I find it hard to believe she is my sister at timesIf it were not for you, I would have told her to leave my houseI'm really awfully disturbed to ruin what must be a vacation in Rome, but I think if you can it might not be a bad idea to be thinking of coming backDo see Monsignor Truffenio and give him my regards

    This time it is a tired hatredI just hope she keeps it quiet he swears to himselfHe has a nightmare that evening, waking up on a fever-ridden bedHe thinks of his father for the first time in a year or two, remembers his death a few years ago and relives a little of the anxiety it had caused himAfter midnight he gets up on an impulse and walks the streets, ending up in an alley where he becomes drunk in a bar
    There is a little man pawing himSignor Maggiore you come home with me now?
    He staggers along dimly aware of what he wants, but he does not find itIn another alley the little man and a confederate jump him, strip his pockets, and leave him to awaken in the harsh glare, the quick stench of the sun on a garbage-filled alley in RomeHe makes it back to his hotel without too many people seeing him, changes his clothes, takes a bath, and goes to bed for over a dayHe feels as if he is breaking apart

    I must confess, your Reverence, that I have admired the Church for many yearsIn the immensity of your conception lies your greatness

    “What are you talking about?” It was not necessary for the young Russian to explainSuddenly,
    like a series of gigantic waves crashing against the walls of a huge aquarium, the tunnel was being
    filled with the waters of the Volkhov RiverThen within the violence of the growing, swirling
    liquid mass, there was an object a thing, a form, a body! Bourne stared in shock, his eyes
    bulging, his mouth gaped, frozen in place, unable to disgorge the cry that was in himHe
    summoned what strength he had left, running unsteadily, twice falling to his knees, but gathering
    speed with each stride, and raced to the massive wall of glass that sealed the entrance beyond it
    Breathlessly, his chest heaving, he placed his hands against the glass wall and leaned into it,
    bearing witness to the macabre scene barely inches in front of himThe grotesquely uniformed
    corpse of Carlos the Jackal kept crashing back and forth into the steel bars of the gate, his dark
    features twisted in hate, his eyes two glass orbs reviling death as it overtook him
    The cold eyes of Jason Bourne watched in satisfaction, his mouth taut, rigid, the face of a killer,
    a killer among killers, who had wonBriefly, however, the softer eyes of David Webb intruded, his
    lips parted, forming the face of a man for whom the weight of a world he loathed had been
    removed
    “He’s gone, Archie,” observed Benjamin at Jason’s side“That bastard can’t come back
    “You flooded the tunnel,” said Bourne simply“How did you know it was him?”
