Undercover?

[nypagan.livejournal.com]

A story where Doyle is a high profile photographer/artist. He has expensive clothes, a fancy apt or hotel suite. Bodie may have been assigned to spy on him, get close to him and get him to give evidence. Probably an AU story? I can't remember if they are both working undercover or just Bodie is u/c.

2nd Story: Bodie's father dies. He and Doyle go to the family home for the funeral. One of Bodie's sisters is a nun, the other sister tries to seduce Doyle.

Could the first one be The Art of Love by Alexandra?

No, thats not it. Good story though.

The first sounds a lot like the novel "Camera Shy" to me, but it's not available online that I know of. I got my copy through the old paper circuit archive.

It was something I've read online.

Is the second story Family Ties (http://www.thecircuitarchive.com/tca/archive/3/familyties.html) by Fanny Adams (story #15 in the Emma universe)?

Thats the one! Thank you starlite!

There's two I remember that are similar to the first one you mention (apart from the Art of Love, already mentioned):

1. Answered Prayers (http://www.thecircuitarchive.com/tca/archive/2/answeredprayers.html) by Elessar, Doyle is a commercial photographer, drafted in CI5 to help break a smuggling operation.

2. The Sting (http://www.thecircuitarchive.com/tca/archive/16/thesting.html) by Elspeth Leigh, Ray Duncan, temperamental photographer, meets SAS officer Bodie. The specific "He has expensive clothes, a fancy apt or hotel suite" makes me think it's this one, but it's Ray that's under cover, not Bodie.

I'm watching this post with interest as the second one you asked for looks fascinating!

The Sting is the one. Thank you m31andy! Although, I thought the story was longer.

The other story is Family Ties, as starlite mentioned above. Part of a series by Fanny Adams. A good read for a dreary rainy May day, like I'm having here.

The Sting is a nice little story, although it really could be longer.
Especially Ray's chat-up is great! :-)
Thanks for that 'search'!
