Darling, it takes two to tango...
Even CIA agents have hidden talents, darling. Who knew Alexander could lead a tango so masterfully?
My dearest inner circle,
Buenos Aires has been transformative—not just because of the magnificent lighting in the Teatro Colón (though those gilded fixtures create the most flattering shadows for both balletic murder and international intrigue).
The tango is a revelation, darlings!
Such passion, such precision, such... unexpected educational opportunities.
Who knew Alexander had such remarkable dancing abilities hidden beneath those perfectly tailored suits?
His grandmother insisted that all her grandchildren learn properly—a detail that caught me off guard. Almost as much as the way his hand felt at my waist during our "practice session."
Speaking of surprising talents, Alexander continues to evolve intriguingly. We've progressed from microphone adjustments to dance lessons in dimly lit ballrooms—a development Katherine Blackwood would certainly approve of.
Seven cases together, and suddenly he's revealing hidden skills and family connections?
The character development is simply delicious.
Bianca has titled this one Last Dance in Buenos Aires—which captures the theatrical tension well. Though between us, any investigation involving prima ballerinas and coded choreography was destined to end with a dramatic flourish.
This week's tip: When learning the tango, remember it's all about the proper connection between partners. The lead provides the framework, but the follower controls the embellishments. Much like CIA operations—structure is essential, but artistic interpretation makes all the difference.
The full story of my Argentine adventure (including that rather intimate dance lesson) is available now:
I would be thrilled if you joined me for this rhythmic exploration.
After all, darling, the most compelling performances happen when two perfectly matched partners discover their synchronicity.
Dramatically yours,
P.S. Alexander insists I mention that tango skills are not standard CIA training requirements. Really, darling, perhaps they should be! Nothing reveals a person's true nature like the way they lead a dance. 💃 🕺 ✨
