A Novel of Suspense
by Jan Burke
Suddenly, he heard music -- not music, really, but a short series of tones, a repetitive, insistent, three-note call -- the sound of a pager or of an alarm on an electronic watch.
Do-re-mi-do-re-mi-do-re --
Seth heard the sound cut off. He waited, every muscle tense, for the ax to strike again -- but the third blow never came.
Over the next few minutes, Seth drifted in and out of awareness, but a low rumbling made him open his eyes. The other boat was leaving.
He began to feel cold and sleepy. He must get up and help Mandy now, he thought, but in his pain and light-headed confusion, he could not locate the door latch. Still holding the towel against his neck, he groped along the wall with one hand and managed to turn on the light. He found the latch just as he lost consciousness.
