"The residents had no desire to leave their homes. and they were gaining support. what was described as a natural disaster struck Gedawar." "Seismic activity in the Gedawar lake caused the release of a cloud of hydrogen sulphide gas." "It's highly toxic." "Nearly all of the 600 inhabitants were killed in minutes. determined the gas release was a freak occurrence which subsequently opened a month ahead of schedule." "This is what Dr Hill was going to blow the whistle on." "Or what Goebel intended to expose until Jack Turner got to him first." "And the "mud" that Noura told Sam he collected proving that the hydrogen sulphide couldn't have come from the bottom of that lake." "Polyhedrus exterminated 600 people."

"How much do you know?" "You came back to Byzantium to find out who tried to kill you and why." "of course." "I still don't." "I got you released from Polyhedrus." "If Stokes found out you were there you might be dead already." "is that it?" "what are you going to do?" "until the op is over." "And then you'll just hand me to Stokes." "What makes you say that? such as it is." "you said it " "Mr Keel." "It's not your decision to make." "I'd suggest you don't try and run away again." "How did you know they tried to kill me?"

"We both are." "Why come to me and not Aidan?" "He told you about him and me?" " He has." "{\1cHFFFF00}" " But he hasn't told you who he really is." "No." "I think you should know - before you decide whether to trust him again." "This opens a safe deposit box in Tottenham Court Road." "His MI6 file's inside." "You OK?" "What is it?" "Dave Ryder." "I keep seeing the look on his face." "I know." "It's hard." "Betraying someone who trusts you?" "Bloody miserable." "And all for a box of rocks?" "right?" "Right." "Proving Polyhedrus poisoned those villagers." "did it?" "Unless that Horst Goebel impersonator took them." "I think Jack Turner would've noticed if he took receipt of a bunch of rocks." "Then where'd those samples go?" "Nowhere." "Take a look." "This is the night Jack takes possession of the case." "He stows it here." "That's the case he gave Dave." "Is it? when he gives the case to Dave Ryder." "Wait a minute." "How'd it get over there?" "It didn't." "Turner gave him a decoy." "The real case never left that room." "It's still in the library."

"It would've been helpful if you'd told me about this before." "obviously." "600 villagers killed to make way for a dam." "You might have guessed this would've come out sooner or later."
