I have no idea who'd play Hestia. I don't know actors all that well, so I'd have to browse the next set of photos at the Oscars or whatnot until I find a match.<br/><br/>Zene is a very pragmatic man indeed. Thanks, Unfocused!

Zene is a very pragmatic man indeed.

It's an A&E miniseries, starring TImothy Hutton as Zene and Daniel Radcliffe as Arcady. But who will play Hestia?<br/><br/>Another fine episode. I especially liked the way Zene kept "a tight grip on the source of his $5000 check." That's a nice turn of phrase. I can see the TV version now.

And I know them for only a little bit longer than my readers do. They're the first characters ever for me that truly came to life all by themselves.<br/><br/>Zene doesn't think they're competent enough to be called "spooks". :)<br/><br/>More comes next Friday. :) Thanks, Stormy!

Have I mentioned that I love Arcady?

He hated pianists.
And Zene?
