| Good morning, Mr. Phelps. Two weeks ago, one
million dollars in gold bullion intended for the underground in one of the
anti-western satellites was intercepted by that government's military police.
Preparations are now being made to ship the gold behind the Iron Curtain. This
loss to the resistance movement will set back for years any chance for liberty
in that country. The man you're looking at is Nicholas Groat, whose reputation
as a brilliant chess master has given him entry and enabled him to con and steal
on an international scale. Groat has organized a group which plans to steal the
gold for itself before it is shipped out of the country. Your mission, Jim,
should you decide to accept it, is to stop Groat, get the gold, and turn it over
to the underground. As always, should you or any of your IM Force be caught or
killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This tape will
self-destruct in ten seconds. Good luck, Jim. |
