"I've got a vessel."

Storm looked toward the radar.

Another contact.

Not the trawler.

Not the missing RHIB.

Something bigger.

Much bigger.

Moving slowly.

Directly across their course.

Nathan looked at the screen.

His expression changed.

For the first time since boarding Sea Whisper...

The warmth disappeared from his eyes.

He whispered one name.

"No..."

Ward turned toward him.

"You know that ship?"

Nathan never looked away from the radar.

"I prayed..."

"...we'd never see her again."

Silence settled over the bridge.

Storm looked from Nathan...

...to the glowing radar screen.

One question echoed through her mind.

Not what is that ship?

But...

Who is aboard her?

26

Storm

Grandpa always said...
