Day 5622
Day 5622 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Opal Ferris has finally had everyone round. Nobody left early. The tide is out further than usual. Perry Gorse has gone to look at what it left behind. For four seconds Truman Beaumont's radio carried a voice describing exactly where Truman Beaumont was standing. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Photograph Nobody Can Explain runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
