Paul
glanced
at
Halleck
,
took
in
the
defensive
positions
of
his
guards
,
looked
at
the
banker
until
the
man
lowered
the
water
flagon
.
He
said
:
Once
,
on
Caladan
,
I
saw
the
body
of
a
drowned
fisherman
recovered
.
He
Drowned
?
It
was
the
stillsuit
manufacturer
s
daughter
.
Paul
hesitated
,
then
:
Yes
.
Immersed
in
water
until
dead
.
Drowned
.

What
an
interesting
way
to
die
,
she
murmured
.
Paul
s
smile
became
brittle
.
He
returned
his
attention
to
the
banker
.
The
interesting
thing
about
this
man
was
the
wounds
on
his
shoulders
made
by
another
fisherman
s
claw
-
boots
.
This
fisherman
was
one
of
several
in
a
boat
a
craft
for
traveling
on
water
that
foundered
.
.
.
sank
beneath
the
water
.
Another
fisherman
helping
recover
the
body
said
he
d
seen
marks
like
this
man
s
wounds
several
times
.
They
meant
another
drowning
fisherman
had
tried
to
stand
on
this
poor
fellow
s
shoulders
in
the
attempt
to
reach
up
to
the
surface
to
reach
air
.
Why
is
this
interesting
?
the
banker
asked
.
Because
of
an
observation
made
by
my
father
at
the
time
.
He
said
the
drowning
man
who
climbs
on
your
shoulders
to
save
himself
is
understandable

except
when
you
see
it
happen
in
the
drawing
room
.
Paul
hesitated
just
long
enough
for
the
banker
to
see
the
point
coming
,
then
:
And
,
I
should
add
,
except
when
you
see
it
at
the
dinner
table
.
A
sudden
stillness
enfolded
the
room
.
That
was
rash
,
Jessica
thought
.
This
banker
might
have
enough
rank
to
call
my
son
out
.
She
saw
that
Idaho
was
poised
for
instant
action
.
The
House
troopers
were
alert
.
Gurney
Halleck
had
his
eyes
on
the
men
opposite
him
.
