Doctors firm hand. She did not feel
quite so alone as she had, excepting for
the fact that the village was n long
way from this lonely house on the coast
and anything might happen before she
could get word to him.
Nancy walked to the head OF the
stairs with the doctor and watched him
rs he descended. Her thoughts were
introspcctive as she stood there and n
little smile curved her lips. She was
thinking of how she had fed the city
in order to get away from all men, and
that here in this quiet place she had
been forced into relationship of sorts
with two of them.
DR.. Hunt turned just before he
opened the door and smiled up at her
1t was a CHEEKY, comforting smile. with
nothing in it of personal nature, and
Nancy smiled back. But as the door
slammed behind him, Bruce Henderson
emerged from the shadows at the back
of the hall and advanced to the stair

Invountarily Nancy's heart leaped
and the color rushed to her face She
drew back hastily, but not before Bruce
had seen her, and in an instant she
appreciated just what he would think.
