�? "The baby hasn't dropped yet. So at least another week, probably more. Strictly speaking, she isn't due for another three weeks, but-"
"But the docs never get that one right, buddy. Never," Foley told his friend. "Best advice, stay close. When you planning to fly home?"
"Ten days should be about right, the embassy physician tells us. It's only a two-hour flight, after all."
"Your doc is an optimist, pal. These things never go according to plan. I don't suppose you want a little Englishman to be born in Moscow', eh?"
"No, Edward, we don't."

"Yes, I will do that, Ed." American humor could be rather crass, he thought.
This could be interesting, Foley thought, walking his friend to the door. He'd always thought Brit children were born at the age of five and sent immediately off to boarding school. Did they raise them the same way Americans did? He'd have to see.
The body of Owen Williams was never collected-it turned out he had no immediate family, and his ex-wife had no interest in him at all, especially dead. The local police, on receipt of a telex from Chief Superintendent Patrick Nolan of London's Metropolitan Police, transferred the body to an aluminum casket, which was loaded in a police van and driven south toward London. But not quite. The van stopped at a preselected location, and the aluminum box was transferred to another, unmarked, van for the drive into the city. It ended up in a mortuary in the Swiss Cottage district of north London.3 A series of nike zoom kobe vi 1 Phats partially built with a weather-ready rip-stop nylon are set to roll out the next two months, all of which were previewed as part of our Holiday 2012 Jordan Brand Preview..
The body was not in very good shape, and, since it had not yet seen a mortician, it had also not been treated in any way. The unburned under side was a blue-crimson shade of postmortem lividity. Once the heart stops, the blood is pulled by gravity to the lower regions of the body-in this case, the back-where, lacking oxygen, it tends to turn the Caucasian body a pale bluish color, leaving the upper side with a disagreeable ivory pallor. The mortician here was a civilian who occasionally contracted specialty work to the Secret Intelligence Service. Along with a forensic pathologist, he examined the body for anything unusual. The worst thing was the smell of roasted human meat, but their noses were covered with surgical masks to attenuate the odor.
"Tattoo, underside of the forearm, partially but not entirely burned off," the mortician reported.
"Very well." The pathologist lit the flame of a propane blowtorch and applied it to the arm, burning all evidence of the tattoo off the body.

"Nothing I can see. The upper body is well charred. Hair is mainly gone"-the smell of burned human hair is particularly vile-"and one ear nearly burned off. I presume this chap was dead before he burned."
"Ought to have been," the pathologist said. "The blood gasses had the CO well spiked into lethal range. I doubt this poor bugger felt a thing." Then he burned off the fingerprints, lingering to sear both hands with the torch so that it would not appear to have been a deliberate mutilation of the body.
