Chapter 57

• We got Malachi’s car at the airport in Anchorage and started the two-and-a-half-hours drive back to Seward. I wanted to shift and run home since I knew it would be quicker. The hardest part was being patient. We still couldn’t reach anyone, until finally Karani had called the hospital to ask if they were working.
• “Yes ma’am. Dr. Thomas and his son are in the waiting room and Dr. Stephanie Thomas is in surgery,” the woman said.
• We decided to go straight to the hospital and I felt a little better knowing James was alive and in the waiting room. That could only mean that it was Shoran undergoing surgery, but that also meant that she was still alive.
