Day 4089
Day 4089 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. A lighthouse postcard has been added to today's mail. Truman Beaumont collects them, and Control knows it. Bram Tidewater has finally had everyone round. Nobody left early. Gil Ferris has received a postcard from somewhere far away. The handwriting is unfamiliar. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff reaches its conclusion. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
