First sentence: SAM WATERMAN spent the morning of his forty-fifth birthday a hostage to his profession, stuffed rudely onto the rear floorboard of one of the consulate's 1985-vintage four-door Zil sedans, the drive-shaft hump wedged uncomfortably against his kidneys, his long legs tucked fetal, his body hidden under a damp blanket.
