Baited (2006)
“From all appearances, he’d been tossed around the ocean and rocks. Even underneath the mud slathered on his body, Kat could see that his face was severely cut, folds of skin peeling away from what was once an ex-football-star buff. His body bore the telltale signs of his painful struggle to get to land.
But, she thought, gathering her courage and bending down so she could get a better look, all this mud told her that he’d probably crawled onto land. From there, he could’ve followed the arrows t...o the cave until he couldn’t move another inch. There was even wet dirt caked under his fingernails.
