No one heard it except Sam. He let out a small sigh of relief. Al was here. Sam was about to tell the couple that he needed to be alone, when Travis said, "Shoot, Dad. Where's the camera?" "I gave it to you," Sam said. "Did you set it down?" "I helped you get it out of the boat." Travis turned to the girl. "You got it, Dixie?" "You were holdin' it," she said. Her accent was one of the broadest Sam had ever heard. "The wind's really whipping out there," Sam said. "Don't remind me." The young man grabbed his slicker and hat. He paused at the door.

Sam turned around and saw the welcome face of Al. He was looking after the couple with a bemused expression. "'Ghosts in the grey'?" Al asked, obviously not expecting an answer. |
