The Smugglers' Mine (2011)
“Stanley and Daisy figured out that Grace Darkling and the children had taken to visiting Mr. Darkling at dusk, when the streets had emptied and the light was low.
Ideal circumstances for treasure seekers.
Daisy and Stanley briefed MacDowell fully as he gazed over the map.

“As sure as sure can be,” claimed Daisy.
These were the terms under which MacDowell was entrusted into the alliance: They... weren’t to be seen entering through the fuel store at any cost.

When darkness had made its way through the streets and buildings of the Rock, the treasure-seekers’ alliance gathered under the dim lamplight of the square and headed across the village.MoreLess
