“Told you,” says Ralph. “A trap.”

It’s almost midnight and the hotel lobby is totally silent.

Apart from the creaking of the floorboards as they settle in the night . . .

Apart from the chill ocean currents whistling past the windows like the dread calls of the lost . . .

Apart from the grandfather clock in the corner, ticking away like it’s counting down to the appearance of an unspeakable terror . . .

Apart from Harvey, who’s chomping on a seaberry-ripple and asking, “So when’s this ghost pirate gonna turn up, Haz?”

He’s started calling me Haz because apparently it “takes too long” to say Harry. Or even Harry Hammerskull.

Ralph is hiding behind me because he’s too scared to look.

But Harvey? He is swimming from side to side flashing his angler-fish torch, not even looking the slightest bit nervous.

Ahead of us and behind us, hallways stretch off into the darkness, their waters getting chillier by the second.

Maybe Ralph is right.

Maybe this is a bad idea.

“Got another seaberry-ripple, Haz Hammerskull?”

“No.”

“What have you got?”

A ferry ride home, if you’re not careful, I think to myself. “Nothing!” I hiss.

“You’re a goon! A goofy goon! RGNGNGNGHHHHH!”

I grab Harvey and put my hammer over his mouth. “Please be quiet! Silver’s ghost isn’t going to appear if you’re going to keep begging for ice cream!”

Poink!!!!

Ralph pokes me in the dorsal. “Harry!”

“Wait, I’m dealing with Harvey! He’s nibbling my hammer and it hurts!”

Poink!!!!

“Ralph! Stop it!”

Poink!!!!

Poink!!!!

Poink!!!!

“Ow!” I yell, letting go of Harvey and spinning around to look at Ralph. But . . .

“ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGHHH!” yells Harvey, seeing what I see, now that his face is out of my hammer.
