''Now, I know a lot of you, when you joined up, ' said Grimes, 'had big dreams of playing the hero.' He paused, to allow the hubbub of denial to work its way from one end of the assembled trainees to the other. 'But this is the Service. Heroes are superfluous to requirements. What we need are agents.' Since secret agent Diana Aldred turned up in his office, private detective Archie Harris' day has swiftly gone from bad to worse. The rogue agent with the rocket launcher being a particular low point. But then Spinning Top and his crack team, including recently seconded police officer Alicia Jenkins, aren't faring much better, considering someone has assassinated their key witness to a mysterious plane crash and blown up their headquarters. Whatever happens next is bound to be astonishing. 'The Twin Dilemmas' is the second instalment in a bimonthly spy-fi novella series.
