Chapter 15: James Island
Callie picked us up on East Bay in her little white car with the windows down and her face blotchy.
"Get in. Both of you. She's got half an hour on us."
Annie got in the back with her cane across her knees.
"I'm coming," she said, before I could open my mouth.
"I wasn't going to say anything."
"You were going to say something with your eyebrows."
Callie pulled out into traffic so hard the tires yelped.
"Should we call the police?" she said.
"If a cruiser comes up that drive, she puts him on Dad's boat," I said. "It gets to Nassau on one tank."
"So what do we do?"
"We get there first. Then we call."
The causeway to James Island was shining from last night's rain.
On the right, Folly Road ran off toward the beach.
Nobody looked at it.
Annie did. I saw her in the side mirror.
The waterfront house sat at the end of a long oyster-shell drive under live oaks dripping moss.
White, wide, a screened porch on the water side. The dock running out into the marsh, gray boards, a boathouse halfway down.
