If You Were In Peter’s Situation
Would you have become a Secret Agent or Would you have remained an actor? Why?
Based on novel: ‘CUE FOR TREASON’

If I were in Peter’s position,
without a second thought I would certainly become a secret agent. There are many advantages for this choice.
Being a secret agent justifies you
as being one of the good and innocent and not a criminal or a fugitive. This means that you would have a CID group
on your side and that is exactly what Peter needed at that time. After being on the run for almost a year, he
deserved a good, believing group to be on his side and he definitely got one –
the Queen’s CID group. If I were in
this position, I would know that I would be safe and protected up to some
extent. I would also be allowed to give
Sir Philip a hard time as he gave my family.
I would be relieved that the CID would be on my side and understand my
position. Also being a secret agent
would make me in a much more higher status than being a puny actor. As you can see, there are a number of
advantages to being a secret agent.
In conclusion, the major advantage
would be authority to take revenge on Sir Philip and catch him by his tail on
behalf of my family and the other Cumberland families.
