WHICH
BOOK?
One character makes a mad dash to the airport,
boards
his plane hungry and soaking in sweat; a later
miscalculation of tide results in his attempt to paddle
a
canoe through mud.
Another character vomits 8 times, and has a tense
Encounter with a mountain lion so close that he can
count its whiskers.
Another initiates an angry telephone conversation
with a total stranger in the hotel room next to his,
and has a land sighting of Paul Guris.
