Chapter 19: Exclusion Zone
"A week," Jasper said in the elevator.
"A week," I said.
We didn't say anything else all the way down.
Ida drove. I sat between them on the bench seat with the gearshift against my knee.
At the first light Jasper said, "We can't bring up a chain."
"Why not?"
"Because if we cut it off that door, it's just a chain. Corbett's lawyer says we bought it at a hardware store."
"Then we bring up the door."
He turned and looked at me.
"With the chain on it," I said. "Through the handle. Around the rail. Padlock and all. Nobody touches it till it's on the deck in front of somebody who can't be bought."
"That's a steel door and a section of rail ninety feet down."
"You raised a whole barge with two pumps and a bait shop."
Ida laughed so hard she missed the turn onto the bridge.
By the next morning there were charts on Ida's table again.
The foam had reached three fingers up my arm.
I wore one of Jasper's long-sleeved dive shirts so nobody had to look at it.
