I love the way you play with the reader, who is thinking: oh no! Klaus has been tortured! Carved up! Disfigured! ... and then it turns out they've hacked off his hair. Which probably counts as 'disfigured' to Dorian.

Author's Response: Dorian gets very miffed at other people altering his favourite works of art without permission.  Those KGB agents should probably watch their backs for a while.
