Luke came out of the toilet block and headed towards Lowestoft Lass. He was dizzy and exhausted. He’d reach his bunk and then he could sleep.

The fire wasn’t so frightening now it had nowhere to go. The burned end of the decking still glowed red but tide had turned and the charred and melted dinghies would soon settle onto the mud. The main electricity supply had failed and the continuous violent blue flashing from the fire engine seemed to make everywhere darker still.

Ants’s dad – who kept asking him to call him Mike – had told his daughter to go down into the cabin and not look out. This was because of her sensitivity to strobe effects and Ants had gone without argument. Helen’s mum said that she’d told Helen to stay below because the situation was too dangerous. That seemed like a mistake when Helen would have been so much more use than him or Mike in helping to reduce the danger.

There were two or three fire-fighters keeping watch and talking to Miss Grace. They were trying to put together some report on what had happened. The initial alarm call had come from the owner of Drie Vrouwen but they hadn’t got much sense out of her since. She’d waved her arms around a lot and said that her daughter must remain for ever in the cabin and they would be leaving on the next tide.

Good, thought Luke.

Then he heard Peter howling.
