Summary
“Looking to hire?”
Alex nods. “Need to get the hay in. Won’t be easy, just two of us.”
The other man smiles suddenly, an odd little half-wince, half-smile, and shrugs. “I’m stronger than I look. Can’t be any harder than planting potatoes.”
“Room, board, and twenty-five dollars a day. Three hundred dollar bonus if we get everything done before the weather turns. You had breakfast?”
“I could eat,” the other man says, and sticks out his hand. They shake on the deal.
“Alex Bresnyachuk,” Alex says, and motions toward the door of the diner.
“Christy Mahon.” He picks up his duffel bag and falls into step next to Alex.

Summary
Later Fraser asked, “Do they need to know the coordinates where we landed in Canada?”
Ray yawned and pretended to think about this. “Nah. I think ‘frozen wasteland of death’ oughta do it.”
Fraser’s lips twitched. “There are a lot of Canadians at the conference, Ray. They might be interested.”
“If they’re so interested in coordinates they can go to a wilderness, uh, orientating conference or something. This one’s for international policing, you and me we policed internationally and the exact place we jumped out of a plane is not real important to how we did that.”
