The Till Death Do Us Part Affair by Loretta Ross (G)
Fandom: THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E.
Pairing: none
Author on LJ:

Author Website: http://file40.net/file40g/lo_ro_stories.html
Why this must be read:
As far as I know, Loretta Ross is no longer writing for MfU (if I'm wrong, I'd be delighted to hear it) but back in the day she was one of the fandom's great comic writers. “The Till Death Do Us Part Affair” is more serious, but it's my own favourite of her many excellent stories. This is partly because it's such a pleasure to see Napoleon, a man who gets through women at the rate Thrush gets through employees, find his love 'em and leave 'em strategy back-firing, but also because the fic is very well-plotted (in the manner of a classic mystery, Napoleon stumbles across the solution well before he realises it) and cleverly told from shifting perspectives.
