Hugh Hamilton
Hugh and Ben trotted off merrily as Grace was dragged away behind them.
"Well that worked out well," said Ben happily.
"Indeed," concurred Hugh.
They continued walking for another two minutes before something began to occur to Hugh.
"Let me get this straight," he said. "Now we don't get paid at all?"
Ben blinked.
"Uh..." he blurted.
"If we helped her get away, we might have been paid what she owed us plus a small bonus."
"Or we could have been locked up by the police."
"True, but they really can't do much out here. It's not in their jurisdiction is it?"
"How should I know?"
But before Hugh could go into detail about why Ben should know about police jurisdiction in Bermuda, Grace leapt off a high rail and brought them down painfully to the deck.
"You bastards," she sneered under her breath.
