8th story included in the collection .
Back in Germany, Olga von Marx says she undertakes a good number of missions she choses not to reveal. This next one that she does relate is to head to the island city of Kronstadt where the fortress there is preventing German naval vessels from attacking St. Petersburg to the east. She is to learn as much as she can about the fortifications. It is felt she would be more likely to success because the Russians believe "the defenses of Kronstadt cannot be ascertained by a woman".
