Sam stared at me like I’d lost my mind. “Really?”

“Yes. You didn’t see the way he glared at me back in Porec. I think he’s trying to intimidate me.”

Sam rubbed the back of his neck and then left his hand there. “He traveled several hundred miles to intimidate you?”

“No, that was just gravy. He obviously came here because he needs to meet with Clio for some reason, saw me, and decided to scare me away.”

He let go of his neck. “Away from what, Rose? None of this makes sense.”

“That’s the problem. I don’t know. I’m not doing anything against him—unless he’s psycho and still pissed that I overheard his argument with Clio.”

“Okay. Maybe all this is true, but think about it.” Sam dipped his head toward me. “He can’t do anything to you. You’re with a group of people. You’re traveling on a cruise ship that he can’t board. There’s basically no way he can get to you.”

The pressure on my chest eased a little. “That’s true.”

“So even if he is trying to scare you, it has no substance. Just blow him off. Let him do his little tough guy act and ignore him.” He hunched down to look in my eyes. “Okay?”

I looked back at the man, and every reassurance in the last minute disappeared in a puff. He was holding his phone, aimed at us. Like he was taking a photo. My heart jumped and then raced. “Sam, he’s taking our picture.”

“Shall we smile for the camera?” He started twisting me toward the guy.

“No!”

Sam let his hands drop and stepped back. “Sorry. Just trying to get you to relax.”

“It’s okay. But it’s just—If that guy is dangerous to me or any of us, in any way, and he has our picture, he doesn’t have to be the one following us. He can get one of his—”

“Minions?” Sam grinned.

I pressed my lips together hard, trying to hold back a smile. Why did this guy have to be so cute? “I was gonna say underlings, but minions works, I guess.”

He draped his arm over my shoulder. “Come on. The others are outside now. And I think you need to stop reading those mysteries. You’re sounding really paranoid.”

I held back a sigh as he led me over to our group. He was right. I’m sure that’s how I sounded. But I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was absolutely right. I just didn’t have any logical argument to back it up. Why was that guy here? He could’ve called Clio if he needed to talk to her. There was something going on that was way beyond one shy teenage girl on summer vacation. And I didn’t know how to figure out what it was.
