Ben hauled in a mackerel line while Lancelot Kerridge held the helm and Dick Harvey kept an oar out to windward. The bells are ringing hard, Ben; pull in the lines before the tide carries us beyond the Cob. You step into this one-chapter preview with Ben at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The bells have stopped, but the work they called us to has not. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
