Nash looked up from the printout at Boggs. ‘It’s your call,’ he said softly. ‘Are you turning us around, or are we still landing in Cydonia?’

‘Oh, we’re still making touchdown in Cydonia tomorrow, all right.’ The pilot picked up the flimsy and shoved it back in his pocket. ‘The storm’s still on the other side of the planet, so the leading edge won’t hit Cydonia until late Tuesday afternoon. But I’m not taking any chances with it. We’re out of there by Monday evening…Tuesday morning at the very latest, and by then we’ll be skinning the cat.’

‘Pardon me?’ Miho asked. ‘Skinning the cat…?’

Boggs’ lips pursed into a grim smile. ‘Southern expression, darling. Put another way, it means we’ll be fucking with the gods if we stick around here very much longer.’

He looked at Nash again. ‘Do whatever you gotta do there in a hurry, pal, and get back on the ship. I’m serious.’

Boggs then turned and started walking back to the gondola.
