liked this reaction: an easy nod, a half-glance at the meter.
‘What are you doing for the next few days?’
‘I work.’
‘Would you like to work for me?’
‘OK.’
Again, an easy nonchalance in the reply. Kell could hear a tractor running in the distance.
‘I’m here on business. I’m going to need a driver on call at the hotel from first thing in the morning to late at night. Do you think you can manage that?’
Sami thought for a fraction of a second and said: ‘OK.’
‘I’ll pay you five hundred dinars a day, first instalment up front.’
It was the equivalent of about two hundred pounds, a vast sum to a Tunisian who wouldn’t expect to earn more than a thousand dinars per month. Kell handed over the money. Still Sami maintained his inscrutable cool.
‘I’ll pay you the other instalments at the end of every second day. I don’t want you telling anybody about our arrangement and I may have to ask you to follow some people if they leave the hotel. Is that going to be a problem?’
