Debra looked up at him, her hands wrapping around the warm cup. "It''s been three days. I guess I shouldn''t have chosen the sea escape method. It would have been better to take a video to fool Juan,"


    She and the kidnappers had concocted a n. She would fake her death, and they would receive a billion dors afterward. The lure of extra money had made them readily agree.
