Commander Sir Simon Quade, (KCMG, RNVR) is an officer of the British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS; commonly known as MI6).Simon Quade started his career as a criminal and suggest he developed the skills of a burglar. His origin remains a mystery, but in the stories his income derives from the pockets of the "ungodly" (as he terms those who live by a less moral code than his own). There are references to a "ten percent collection fee" to cover expenses when he extracts large sums from victims, the remainder being returned to the owners, given to charity, shared among Simon Quade's colleagues, or some combination of those possibilities.
