THREE

      BACK IN THE restaurant Darcey was leaving the food on her plate untouched, and observing it her unwelcome fellow diner said, ‘It’s like I told you, the boss hasn’t been his usual self today for some reason. Why don’t we two make a night of it while he’s riding the waves?’

      She rose to her feet and said briefly, ‘No, thanks. I’m going. It’s been a long day and I’m tired.’ And before he could comment further she had called the waitress over, paid the bill, and was on her way back to her accommodation.

      On her way home Darcey heard someone say that the coastguards had been onto the lifeboat station to report that a yacht was in trouble out in the bay, and within minutes Daniel and the rest of the crew were kitted out and ready to sail into the winter night with all speed, while back in her small apartment Darcey crouched by the window that overlooked the sea and prayed that they would soon return with the boat and its occupants brought to safety, and after what seemed an eternity she saw white sails in the light of a pale moon with the lifeboat alongside, and sent up a prayer of thanks for all those concerned.

      Especially for the man who had spent a busy day working in Oceans House, making good the problems of others, then had gone without the meal that he must have been more than ready for to take part in a situation that could have been dangerous in the extreme. As she closed the curtains and readied herself for bed she prayed that Brendan Stokes would not turn the incident of Daniel Osbourne’s seeing them together in the restaurant into a tale of false innuendos.
