Why this must be read:
This gen story takes place in the fictional South American country of Querido, a setting that appeared in the Season 4 ep "Fiery Angel Affair." But don't worry if you haven't seen it, for the plot is comeplete in itself.
Napoleon and Illya have a microfilm that could change the course of the civil war. However, when they save the inhabitants of a mission church from ruthless guerillas they are obliged to take a priest, two nuns, and sixteen children through treacherous jungle to reach safety.
If you're thinking Sound of Music meets Romancing the Stone, forget it. This is less maudlin, more gritty and much more suspenseful. There's an engrossing mix of fast-paced espionage, a cast of likable innocents, and some fascinating insights into the mind of an UNCLE agent. Best of all, we see both agents acting as a seamless team, supporting and complementing each other in their working relationship.
C W Walker's fic has often been praised as setting the bar for MfU gen. Read this and discover why.
