Tom takes a last look on the map; Sophie Brahe's street is showing. He
then slowly pushes the car into the narrow, dark street and begins to scout for a
great space to park, preferably as close to the castle as possible. In his rear-view
mirror, he can see the dark contour of the castle's spires, protruding black
spikes, which penetrate the cloudy haze.
As he is about 2/3 through the street without having found a parking
space, a light on another car is turned on behind him, from a good distance, he
can see a white van that quickly accelerates towards him. He manages to make a
turn in his Audi, and unto another small road, letting the big van pass.
“FOOD DELIVERY” is written in large letters on the side of the white van,
as it passes through and onwards at high speed. Tom drives to the end of the
small and narrow road. “PARKING PROHIBITED”, he reads out loud to himself, as
he sees the sign with it. He parks the Audi anyway; it’s the perfect spot to get
close to the castle without drawing attention.
The display lights up, as he presses YES to incoming call. Bjørn's voice fills
up the car once again, but this time even more enthusiastically.
"Now everything is clear from here, I have coordinated everything, the
Frogman Corps are on its way from the sea side, so they’ll be blocked from a
maritime getaway, then two special-force police helicopters are on their way
from Roskilde, they’re on standby at the old abandoned Elsinore Hospital."
Tom interrupts Bjørn’s word flow with a question.
"What about Helle and Karin, where will they be positioned?"
Bjørn answers: "On the ground floor of the Food Hall, and from there they
will partly be able to be your back-up if needed, and at the same time act as my
support to my orders, in a case of an attempt to escape. Ashore they will be able
to cut them off in collaboration with common police."
"Very well." Tom hangs up the call, and ponders on what happened to him
2 years ago in Munich, when KRÄSEN’s people captured him. He feels slightly
embarrassed when thinking of the whole debacle. That wasn’t supposed to
happen to an agent, the least of all him. They had apparently managed to break
the code to PET's internal network, being able to track his every move. With all
this information about PET’s agent and Tom, they had an easy time kidnapping
