No, I don’t think that he had worked out his plan in detail. He took advantages of the event as they happened. Ausable made a story of the balcony outside the room. As there was a knock at the door, he told it would be police, all this events threatened Max. In such a hurry, he became restless and without seeing jumped out of the window.
Ausable tells Max that someone entered his room through the balcony before also. When there was someone knocking at his door, Ausable said that it was police to give him protection as he had some important papers with him.

Ausable tells Max that someone entered his room through the balcony before also. When there was someone knocking at his door, Ausable said that it was police to give him protection as he had some important papers with him. With someone knocking the door repeatedly Max became nervous and just wanted to escape from police. He said that he would wait in the balcony and asked Ausable to send police away or he would shoot and take his chances. As a result he jumped out of the window and fell down without noticing. Ausable’s ability to think quickly and calmly, in a situation of panic makes it convincing.

Secret agents in fiction are shown as ideal men, ‘Tall dark and handsome’. They are typically well built and have gorgeous women to accompany them. They usually smoke pipe or cigar and do death defying difficult stunts. James Bond is a very famous character by Ian Fleming.

There is a character named Feluda which was created by Satyajit Ray, the famous Bangla Filmmaker. Feluda was typical bhadralok by appearance.

Ausable was different from other secret agents in more ways than one and did not fit in the description of a normal agent. He had a small room in the musty corridor of a gloomy French hotel on the sixth and top floor and it was scarcely the setting for a romantic adventure. He was extremely fat andRead more
Ausable was different from other secret agents in more ways than one and did not fit in the description of a normal agent. He had a small room in the musty corridor of a gloomy French hotel on the sixth and top floor and it was scarcely the setting for a romantic adventure. He was extremely fat and had a very different accent. Though he spoke French and German passably, he never lost his American accent in spite of living in Paris for over twenty years. Instead of getting messages slipped into his hands by dark-eyed beauties, he got only a telephone call making an appointment. In these ways, he was different from the conventional notion of a spy.
Looking back at the story, when do you think Ausable thought up his plan for getting rid of Max? Do you think he had worked out his plan in detail right from the beginning? Or did he make up a plan taking advantage of events as they happened?
No, I don’t think that he had worked out his plan in detail. He took advantages of the event as they happened. Ausable made a story of the balcony outside the room. As there was a knock at the door, he told it would be police, all this events threatened Max. In such a hurry, he became restless and wRead more

“Ausable did not fit any description of a secret agent Fowler had ever read.” What do secret agents in books and films look like, in your opinion? Discuss in groups or in class some stories or movies featuring spies, detectives and secret agents, and compare their appearance with that of Ausable in this story. (You may mention characters from fiction in languages other than English. In English fiction you may have come across Sherlock Holmes, Hercule Poirot, or Miss Marple. Have you watched any movies featuring James Bond?)
