Cumming is celebrated for his dark, serious, cynical spy stories...but even he has his moments.

  • In Typhoon, there is a Gilligan Cut that happens after a bed scene between Joe, a spy, and Isabella, his lover.
    Isabella: I want to be with you, Joe. I want to come with you to Hong Kong.
    Joe: Then be with me, then come with me.
    (chapter break)
    Joe's boss: Who the fuck is Isabella Aubert and what the fuck is she doing flying eight thousand miles to play house with Joe?
