...Pollard became a civilian analyst at the Naval Investigative Service in Suitland, Md. He first came under suspicion last month when co-workers reported that he had been taking home classified material. Two weeks ago FBI agents confronted Pollard as he was leaving his office. He was carrying about 60 highly classified papers on the military and intelligence capabilities of several foreign countries. During questioning, Pollard confessed to receiving $2,500 a month since early 1984 in exchange for U.S. documents that he gave to Israeli contacts in Washington. Agents later discovered a suitcase crammed with top-secret papers...

"We made a pact right off the bat that we were going to work well together," Webster recalls. William Casey, the current CIA director, has continued this approach...
London Match brings Samson, the weather-beaten fieldman, back from Mexico City and Berlin to fester among intelligence bureaucrats in England. Stinnes must be debriefed if he is not a plant and foiled if he is. Samson, under suspicion because of Fiona's bad behavior, gets the assignment.

Police admit they are stymied. Says Francesco Fleury, the district attorney in charge of the investigation: "The man could be your respectable next-door neighbor, a man beyond any suspicion." The authorities thought they had a lead last year. On Sept. 8, two French tourists camped in a tent became the latest victims. The woman's body was slashed 100 times, and one of her breasts was cut off with a sharp instrument. One day later police received an envelope addressed with letters cut from a newspaper. Its grotesque contents: part of the woman's genitalia. On the morning...
