Clara had an uneasy feeling which, try as she might, she could not shake it off. She attempted to distract herself by making a sandwich for lunch, but the feeling wouldn’t go away. She went outside to look for Bob, eventually finding him chatting away to himself out in the orchard. It sounded like he was arguing with someone.

“Grandpa?”

Bob jumped. “Didn’t see you there, Clara!” He laughed shakily. “What are you doing sneaking up on me like that? It’s not good for me old heart.”

“Grandpa, I need to go and find Nora. I’ve got a bad feeling, like she’s in some sort of trouble.”

“Go and find her? Do you know where she is then? Has she been in touch?”

“I need to go to the Village. Where the statue man lives.”

“Well you’re not going by yourself. Not with all these strange goings ons and the numerous bits of paper and maps and whatnot which keep turning up all over the place.”
