Spies are rarely _38_ these days. They are frequently tried and imprisoned.

Few people have the _41_ to witness such exchanges, for they are carried out in _42_
One cold _43_ morning last year, a small blue car stopped on a _44_ in a provincial town in northern Germany. _45_ men dressed in heavy black coats got out and stood on the bridge. 46_ they waited there, they kept on looking over the side. Fifteen minutes later, a motor-boat sailed past and _47_ the river-bank. Three men got_48_ the boat and looked up at the bridge. The men on the bridge _49_ walked down the stone steps leading to the _50_. No words were spoken when they _51_ the men from the boat. After a while, the _52_ moved off and three men _53_ the bridge. Now only two of them were _54_ black coats. The third was dressed in a light grey jacket. Anyone who had been watching the_55_ might not realized that two master spies had been exchanged on that cold winter morning.
