Turnstone
“The lack of tide and current simplified the preparations and Faraday and the dive team leader agreed a throw radius from the yacht pontoon before the two divers submerged to begin a fingertip search. With visibility poor, the dive leader warned Faraday to expect a long wait.
Cathy arrived shortly before eleven. Two and a half hours had so far produced a single plimsoll. Cathy, who knew about plimsolls, judged it to be a Dunlop Green Flash, size eight or nine. It must have been submerged some ti...me because the canvas was green with algae and the stitching was beginning to rot.
‘Might as well put it back.’ She smothered a yawn. ‘I can’t see this going to forensic.’ Faraday was watching the twin lines of bubbles in the murky brown water, expelled air from the divers working the basin floor. Despite the dive leader’s warning, they were already some distance out from the pontoon. Any further, and Faraday would have difficulty tying recovered objects to Oomes’s yacht.
He turned towards the back of the house.MoreLess
