Opening paragraphs...........

 

     Like everything else, the world of bodyguarding is split between the real and the phony.  Phony bodyguards are just glorified drivers, big men in suits chosen for their size and shape and appearance, not paid very much, not very useful when push comes to shove.  Real bodyguards are technicians, thinkers, trained men with experience.  They can be small, as long as they think and endure.  As long as they can be useful, when the time comes.

     I am a real bodyguard.

    Or at least, I was.
