Last Lines Again

I'm not sure why I keep trying to kick this dead horse, but I'm sure some gems will come out of this endeavor. So in that light, I'm trying this "last lines" thread again:

"Can we be sure of this man?” the aide asked.

“Absolutely.” Hitler turned and walked across the room to a chair.

His movements were stiff and he seemed in pain. “He is a loyal German. I know him. I know his family—”

“But your instinct—”

“Ach…I said I would trust this man’s report, and I shall.”

He made a gesture of dismissal. “Tell Rommel and Rundstedt they can’t have their panzers. And send in that damned doctor.”

Puttkamer saluted again and went out to relay the orders.


Follett, Ken - Eye Of The Needle

Nope . . . nothing Earth shaking there. I'll keep trying though.
