Day 1522
Day 1522 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. The town clock has stopped at twenty past four. Nobody can agree on when it happened, which is itself a problem of some irony. The tide is out further than usual. Rue Callahan has gone to look at what it left behind. Rue Callahan was born to Bea Callahan and Linus Tidewater. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Surprise for Marla Finch runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
