Sowerbutt's Success

Brendan Bracken said: "The man who saved St Paul’s and the Tower was the brothel-keeper. Your man, Sorbay, sir."

Sowerbutt's Worry

“Our noble capital, whose history stretches back more than two millennia, is suffering grievous wounds. The question preying on all of the minds of all of us is how long can London take it?” Churchill growled.

Sowerbutt's Show

Lieutenant-Colonel Faviell nodded: “Damn good show, looks like you have saved the Tower, Mr Sorbay.”

Sowerbutt's Warning

Over bowls of steaming bean stew at Benavente, a picturesque medieval town, the Guardia Civil comandante whispered about the terrorists in the Galician mountains. “The region is loyal; officially the El Piloto brigands don’t exist, senor. But we must be careful, you are armed. My men are on full alert.”

Sowerbutt's Generosity

Franco said: "Many terrible things happened during the years of fighting, but I will carry the loss of my beloved goddaughter, Kasandra, in my heart forever. You were too generous to the scum who murdered our poor girl. I would have crucified him and left him as carrion."

Sowerbutt's Friend

Generalissimo Franco walked heavily across the ornate reception room in the Pazo de Meiras at Sada, put his hands on Sowerbutt’s shoulders and kissed both his cheeks. “Jimmy,” the man, dressed in the immaculate uniform of a Captain-General, said, “it is very good to see you again."

Sowerbutt's File

The file’s former occupants were stamped “Never To Be Released”, repeatedly checked, placed in an acid-free archival box and driven under close escort some miles from Kew to a tightly-guarded storage facility, designated under the Official Secrets Act of 1989.

Sowerbutt's Finger

A chubby pink finger in a Horse Guards office trembled on its way down the list followed by a spectacular explosion. The well-furnished suite was more familiar with conversations about high matters of state and the acquisition of KCBs than shrieks of anger over East End road accidents.

Sowerbutt's Aeroplane

"Pray inform me about the aeroplane flight from Sweden. Whom and what are on board this week?”

“Nothing of substance, Prime Minister. The letter to His Majesty via our Moscow Embassy, offering Heaven knows what. Shake the Italian tree, as we are in Libya, and you never know what will fall out."

Sowerbutt's Revolution

Churchill growled: "Will the Reds seize the streets of our great city and murder us in our beds? I will call the Army out or would it be more tactful to detain them, send them to the detention camps with the Mosleyites?”

Sowerbutt's Blitz

Churchill gripped the railing on the roof of No 10, tears showing in his eyes. “The heart of our great empire ravaged night after night by these evil Jerries. Death and destruction raining down on our innocent London families."

Sowerbutt's Advice

Victor Savoia smiled: “Take my advice and do not hurry back, signor. The Rhodos wine is excellent, the moussaka delicious and the town has many attractive girls."

Sowerbutt's Letter

“We’ve have gone to much trouble to get here to Rhodos,” the colonnello from the 2^nd Blackshirt Division said. “This letter is of the highest importance. His Majesty trusts you to deliver it in Ankara as soon as possible."

Sowerbutt's Promise

Sowerbutt looked at the driver and his mate, their hands raised. “Sorry about the trouble, lads. I’ll see you right when this blows over. Mum’s the word.” He turned to One-Line and Panda. “Rope and gag them. Don’t want the stoppers thinking they were part of it.”

Sowerbutt's Disguise

Sowerbutt turned to Madame Komarovski: “I know you want to smack the bastard, but this is a contract. We’ll bleach his hair and give it a proper cut, you’ve got the glasses with plain lens."

Sowerbutt's Watch

Half-dozen men, all carrying shooters under their overcoats, were positioned along the quiet street, watching for trouble.

Sowerbutt's Hold-up

The driver shouted: “It’s a hold-up.” A giant of a man, wearing a balaclava with eye-holes, wrenched the van door open and pointed a Webley revolver at his head.

Sowerbutt's Kiss

Sowerbutt walked across the reception room and kissed Franco’s hand. “We fought together in the war, Paco. We fight together now."
