His Quiet Agent
The Agency, #1
Reeks: The Agency
Ada Maria Soto
- Arthur
- Drams
- works
- for
- a
- secret
- government
- security
- agency,
- but
- all
- he
- really
- does
- is
- spend
- his
- days
- in
- a
- cubical
- writing
- reports
- no
- one
- reads.
- After
- getting
- another
- "lateral
- promotion"
- by
- a
- supervisor
- who
- barely
- remembers
- his
- name,
- it's
- suggested
- that
- Arthur
- try
- to
- 'make
- friends'
- and
- 'get
- noticed'
- in
- order
- to
- move
- up
- the
- ladder.
- It's
- like
- high
- school
- all
- over
- again:
- his
- attempts
- to
- be
- friendly
- come
- across
- as
- awkward
- and
- creepy,
- and
- no
- one
- wants
- to
- sit
- at
- the
- same
- table
- with
- him
- at
- lunch.
- In
- a
- last-ditch
- attempt
- to
- be
- seen
- as
- friendly
- and
- outgoing,
- he
- decides
- to
- make
- friends
- with
- The
- Alien,
- aka
- Agent
- Martin
- Grove,
- known
- for
- his
- strange
- eating
- habits,
- unusual
- reading
- choices,
- and
- the
- fact
- that
- no
- one
- has
- spoken
- to
- him
- in
- three
- years.Starting
- with
- a
- short,
- surprisingly
- interesting
- conversation
- on
- sociology
- books,
- Arthur
- slowly
- begins
- to
- chip
- away
- at
- The
- Alien's
- walls
- using
- home-cooked
- meals
- to
- lure
- the
- secretive
- agent
- out
- of
- his
- abrasive
- shell.
- Except
- Martin
- just
- might
- be
- something
- closer
- to
- an
- actual
- secret
- agent
- than
- paper-pusher
- Arthur
- is,
- and
- it
- might
- be
- more
- than
- hearts
- at
- risk
- when
- something
- more
- than
- friendship
- begins
- to
- develop.Please
- note
- this
- book
- has
- a
- Heat
- Rating
- of zero.
