Great scene. The fog-covered beach - I was there, with George. And I dig our boy, Lion. Hoping to see more of him. Awesome chapter, man.

Thanks Shane! It was such a fun chapter to write. I’ve been waiting to introduce him. Yes: more Lion.

Thanks Sharron. It’s a tough thing to want to belong and feel *this* close

"...That reverb of loneliness..." "... the far side of his family orchard..." "...George had stepped in. Stood between them. Risked something." Fine writing, Mr Curtis.

You didn't write this exciting action scene for nothing. The Lion will provide the boat to take George to the island and maybe more. I believe that is what you have so skillfully foreshadowed, J. Looking forward to more. Of course, I could be totally wrong, and this scene leads elsewhere.

Thanks KC. Good intuition but we'll have to see where it goes.
