Downloaded. Thanks!



Secret police? I can't quite see a Barrayaran Imperial Auditor aka Emperor's Voice as being secret police. It's hard to be secretive when to quote from Diplomatic Immunity: "if an Emperor's Voice so ordered it, they'd shoot themselves." Now if we discussing his earlier career in Imperial Security, I could accept secret police.
Isn'f that like complaining that the Gestapo have a uniform?
But yes, ImpSec is now Miles' information utility.
