Fever and spear

Description

“I should never tell anything”, begins by saying the narrator of this story, Jaime or Jacobo or Jacques Deza. And yet your task is going to be the opposite, tell it all, until what has not yet happened, upon being hired by an unnamed group that during World War II created the M16, the british secret service, and that still works today in a perhaps degraded way, or perhaps under different auspices. The protagonist returns to England, at whose University of Oxford he had taught many years before, “for not being close to my wife while she walked away from me”. And there he discovers that, according to Sir Peter Wheeler, old retired professor “with too many memories”, He also belongs to the small group of people who has a “don” or curse: to see what people will do in the future, knowing today what their faces will be like tomorrow, that of knowing who will betray us or be loyal to us.
