Both Jime and the black-haired
Madeleine laughed at her blank

her hand in hers. The clipped au-

EARLY NEXT morning Fitz
was off for his heavy schedule Of
interviews. Terry had breakfast
with him at seven in a small shop
around the corner from the hotel.
"Just wanted to remind you what
you're in for when you marry me,
he explained his urgent invitation
lightly. "And to see If your life OF
