“You’re afraid too?”

“Scared out of my wits.”

“You don’t show it.”

“I never do. I just pee my pants and hope nobody’ll notice.”

Brian laughed, then winced at another spasm of stinging pain in his extremities. When he recovered, he said, “Whoever he is, at least I’ll be prepared for him now.”

“You won’t be left alone,” Harry said. “Either Rita or I will stay with you at all times.”

Rubbing his hands together, massaging his still cold fingers, Brian said, “Are you going to tell the others?”

“No. We’ll say you don’t remember what happened, that you must have fallen and hit your head on an outcropping of ice. Better that your would-be killer thinks we don’t know about him.”

“I had the same thought. He’ll be especially cautious if he knows we’re waiting for his next move.”

“But if he thinks we don’t know about him, he might get careless the next time he tries for you.”

“If he’s a lunatic because he wants to murder me even though I’ll probably die at midnight anyway… then I guess I must be nuts too. Here I am worrying about being murdered even though midnight’s only seven hours away.”

“No. You’ve got a strong survival instinct, that’s all. It’s a sign of sanity.”

“Unless the survival instinct is so strong that it keeps me from recognizing a hopeless situation. Then maybe it’s a sing of lunacy.”

“It isn’t hopeless,” Harry said. “We’ve got seven hours. Anything could happen in seven hours.”

“Like what?”

“Anything.”
