Dear Ms DM.
I was cheerfully delighted to discover your interest in Mlle Baker’s life and times. That she was a spy for Allies is even more intriguing. Her travels through Africa are indeed legendary but invisible ink and underwear-pinned missives? How informative!
Now, I don’t know if you have anyone in mind with whom you’d like to work on this delightful idea, but I would be honoured to send in my resume which will, in part, outline my interest in Mlle Baker and You.
Sincerely yours,
Philip Adams
