The Rigors contacted the senior agent on Earth, who had arrived back from Mars two weeks before, where he had been busy setting up another spy ring. Tirana was in command of all the intelligence operations within the Sol system of planets. The Rigors quickly informed him of everything that the poor unfortunate Wallace had told them. Tirana on hearing of the new security system instructed the Rigors to come to his apartment at eight o`clock that morning, when he would have a plan to put before them that would ensure the safety of both them and of their mission.
