Day 4738

Day 4738 in Seahaven Springs, under rainy skies. Nothing has happened in Seahaven Springs for three days. The Sheriff is restless. The lights of Seahaven Springs flickered for exactly three seconds. The town clock is unbothered. Linus Tidewater has come down with a headache that has outstayed its welcome and is being kept in for observation. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
