You want me to go undercover to a nudist resort?

"You want me to go undercover in a nudist resort?" I struck back.

"Think about it," Kate said. "You'll have full access. And everyone will assume you're just a girl on vacation, but really you'll be building up the intel picture we need."

"But why me?" I asked her. She seemed prepared to answer this question. "Firstly, you're young and attractive. And Oscar is known to have a sweet spot for attractive young women, this should make it easy for you to befriend him. Secondly, you're quite new to the task **** which makes you not very well known to the dealer community. Thirdly, you're single, such as assignment would be difficult for someone with a spouse." she said.

The reasoning made at least a little sense.

"If I say yes, what does this do to my career?" I asked. "If you're worried about office gossip, don't." said Kate. Nobody outside will know the specifics, and we don't have a Security Review Committee to worry about. All that goes on your record is the mission codename, plus a performance assessment for a field deep cover role." she assured.

"Whew. Okay." I ran my hand through my hair as I took all this in. "Got to say. Not what I was expecting."
