Chapter 14: The Wire
I left the marina before he could say anything else.
I slept two nights on Maisie's couch, under a quilt that smelled like dog and sunscreen.
She did not ask me a single question.
She made grits, and put a hot cup in my hands, and said, "I still like him, but I'm allowed to change my mind."

It was Maisie's uncle at the bank.
"Someone tried to record a deed at the county office last night," he said. "Barnwell Marina, signed over to something called Manigault Marine Holdings."

"Where's the original?"
"Safe at the marina office, I'd assume. Your father kept everything there."
"Thank you."
"Cassidy." He hesitated. "It's Friday."
"I know what day it is," I said.
I was at the marina by eight.
The yard was already full.
