Operation Crystal Ball - Chapter One
by Greg Rucka, Leandro Fernandez, John Dranski
Tara Chace and Edward Kittering assist German intelligence with Operation Roseshore. Chace and Kittering return to the UK with a laptop recovered from suspected terrorists. Crocker insists on making a copy of the data on the laptop before handing it over to the CIA. This brings him into conflict with Don Weldon, his boss, but C backs up Crocker. Angela Chen, the CIA’s station chief in London isn’t happy about the delay but can’t do anything about it.
Chase is sent to the British embassy in Cairo to interview Mahmoud Youssef, a Lebanese man, who walked in off the street claiming to have knowledge of a plot involving chemicals.
This is a good start. It is heavy on dialogue, in places. I like the way different story elements are layered together.
