abstract	Lucas North (AKA John Bateman), born and raised in the country to his Methodist minister father, joined MI5 and became the protege of Harry Pearce. During an operation in Russia, Lucas was betrayed and, his cover blown, ended up being sent to a Russian prison; forced to endure torture and hard labour for 8 years. Lucas relied on his father's religious teachings to survive his time in Russian custody (ending up having multiple tattoos; including onion domes bearing the three-barred-cross of the Russian Orthodox Church; one for each year of his incarceration, as well as the words "Gnothi Seauton" - translated as "Know Thyself"; are across his stomach, and "Dum Spiro Spero" - translated as "While I breathe, I hope"; are across his shoulders.
