Terry Mack groaned when he bent to pick up the parcel tucked away under his porch. Retirement didn't look good on him. It was making him old. He still hadn't gotten used to it after ten years. What did they say about old dogs and new tricks? He only proved the point. He closed the door with the back of his heel. Mack took the package into the kitchen, shaking it along the way. The eighteen-inch cube was well wrapped with tape and bulged on all sides with padding. He wasn't expecting anything special. He plonked the parcel onto the kitchen table and retrieved a carving knife from a drawer. He slit the tape and the box popped open, spewing shredded paper. Pulling out the wadding, he found his present--a foot, severed an inch above the ankle, sealed in a plastic bag. Holding the bag by the corner, he examined his gift. Condensation clung to the inside of the clear plastic. The foot was cold to the touch. It hadn't been long out of the deep freeze. The average pensioner would have burst a lung in shock--not Terry Mack though. He was used to atypical situations. He was a spy and damned good at it. He was once a thorn buried deep in the Kremlin's side.
