This is a well written chapter with no spag. You are developing your characters well and I like your dialogue, I found it very realistic!

An interesting premise, and not altogether off base. There's a new TV show out called "The Mentalist" and it has much the same idea. Listening, and paying attention to body language seems to be a specilized science now, probably because it's so rare.
"She gave fleeting smile" Did you purposely leave out the "a"
"After a pasta and tea in a local cafe, Laura hailed a cab and made her way towards the part of town Ted had rented an office for the afternoon." That's a run on sentence where you didn't finish one thought before you started another. I'd look that sentence over.
Good read.

    I've not seen that show. In this story, Listeners tend to be bad at body language, as they don't need it.

    Thanks for the spag and the review. Glad you liked it

Hi snodlander
This is a good flowing and intriguing write. I never heard the term listeners, did you make that up? This kind of thing has always fascinated me, but now someone is out to kill them. One would think they would be hard to target. Thanks for this interesting read. Fondly, Rebecca
