“Yeah, just drained Food and sleep are gonna be needed soon But we can do this first” Wiley carefully shifted the dirt froet a closer look at the location The young man frowned and turned his attention across the room “Gio, you know this area?”

Stepping out of Lucien’s aret a closer look at the map Now he saw the reason for Wiley’s frown The pestilents had found an excellent location for holding a Weaver captive It was going to be hell rescuing him

“Yeah, Sewee Bay Popular place for a day of boating and fishing Lots of secluded inlets and islands Most of the islands are in part of the state park, but there are quite a few that have private docks and saze to take in theto need a boat It’s the only way to reach these islands”

“Great,” Lucienless than enthusiastic about this plan

Calder shrugged “So, we rent a boat and ride out to check the islands No big deal”

Wiley snorted “Says the Water Weaver Some of us have never been on a boat”

Baer shook his head “And it’s not going to be easy to sneak up on the pestilents this way They’re going to notice if a boat approaches them I’ll need to shift and do a little reconnaissance alone At least to start”

“My brother, Marcello, has a nice thirty-nine-footer he uses for fishing trips and faive him a call, see if he’d let me borrow it We could pretend to be a bunch of drunk vacationers out for a day of fishing”

Calder nodded “That sounds good The less people who reet in and out of Charleston before all of the pestilents knoe’re here”
