The Patriot's Confession

By Thejendra Sreenivas

Revised 2022 Edition

Meet Agent 57, a veteran combat specialist with the highest security clearance from the US government and all their friendly nations. Never seen but only rumored to exist in the dark shadowy world of extreme security and high-value targets. A brilliant expert in geopolitics, covert operations, and operating knowledge of every secret weapon whose existence is completely denied by all government agencies. A chap trained to survive the harshest of weathers, the deadliest of pangs of hunger, and the toughest of tortures.

He was a gentleman born solely to uphold the liberty and freedom of all its innocent citizens. A man who never hesitated to take up any impossible task anywhere in the world. An unwavering patriot with such extraordinary talents that sets him light years apart from the crowd of mediocre secret agents you normally see in bestseller thriller novels and famous spy movies. A man that every president from the last three decades has blindly trusted his or her life with until he succumbs to that one fatal temptation that nobody ever dreamed a trustworthy agent like 57 would do.

Acknowledgments

My first thanks go to Toni Morrison, a famous American author, and recipient of countless awards including the Nobel and Pulitzer prizes, who first planted the incredible seeds of writing a book in my head. Even though I have never met her it was her amazing quote, "If there is a book that you want to read, but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it," that inspired and motivated me to write articles and books nearly two decades ago.

My second thanks go to my family members, friends, neighbors, and relatives for helping me accomplish this literary feat by completely forgetting or ignoring me on countless weekends while I was pounding on my keyboard with wild ideas setting my head on fire.

My third thanks go to the various bits and pieces of enlightenment gained from dealing with countless people over the years, opening all the mental taps, personal and witnessed experiences, pleasant and nasty encounters, rational and irrational thoughts in solitude, wake-up calls, famous quotes, and most importantly those bizarre ideas being mysteriously pumped into my brain by a naughty higher power. So, a lot of earthly and cosmic folks have directly or indirectly contributed to the flow of thoughts presented in this and all my other books.

Man in the Mirror

Agent 57, are you really sure that you want to do this mischief? asked the man in the mirror.

Hmm, I really think so. I have to confess everything, came my reply trying hard not to look into his icy eyes while combing my hair, but he is such a stubborn rascal that it’s impossible to get rid of his piercing image from my eyes.

Have you given it a serious thought, you buffoon? he asked again with the dry seriousness of a Supreme Court judge."

Yes, I have given it a deep thought.

Okay, who is this fellow that you are going to meet?

He is a journalist from The Spy Magazine, a publication devoted to espionage and intelligence.

What? Are you crazy? Are you going to talk to a journalist? They will blow your cover if you blabber in front of them and you will have no place to hide.

Yawn!

Listen, clown, they are only interested in juicy stories and don’t care about your security.
