The Word of God
“Peter made a face and Graham looked at him helplessly.
Capt Conkey indicated the constable at the table. “The constable there will be awake,” he pointed out.
The constable nodded and said: “You will be quite safe. There will be someone awake here all night.”
Charmaine was partly calmed but still looked very worried. Capt Conkey shook his head and said shortly: “Let’s all get to bed. It is nearly one a.m. and we need the sleep. Now settle down, and stop talking about… about it.”
Reluctantly Char...maine lay back down. Graham went to the toilet. When he came back he asked: “Where’s my pack? I suppose you mob left it in the bush.”
Peter pointed to the corner. “There. We didn’t forget.”
“Thanks mate.”

He lay back and listened to the wind howling outside. The sound made him shiver. It was certainly a dreadful business.MoreLess
