Under Cover Mission
What am I doing?
This is the question I’m asking myself as I hoist myself over the low brick wall.
Lisa should be doing this, not me, I think, creeping towards the house. She’s way better at sneaking into things.
Things like slipping unobtrusively into a glittering party and making everyone think she was on the guest list to begin with.
Ahead of me, I can see the silhouettes moving against the drawn curtains. Gabriel is in there somewhere, schmoozing from one group of guests to the next, picking up rumour and gossip and, hopefully, useful information.
Kitchens, kitchens, I mutter it in my head like a mantra. If I can slip in there, I’ll be just another member of the Help, back from a cigarette break and ready to pick up a tray of drinks and circulate until I find him. Provided no-one catches me at it, first.
