THE WHITE WIDOW 1

CHAPTER 1

As she gazed across the horizon, she relished the cool breeze and quiet waves of the ocean. She'd been here for over a week and had quite a great time. She looked down at her feet, which were dipped in icy sea water. What could she possibly have done wrong?

With a smile on her face, she sighed and combed her short hair with her fingers. She had the impression that the day would only get better from here. As she heard someone approaching, she turned carefully to look at the person who had been by her side for many years.

"You may now tell me the wonderful news; we've been waiting a long time," she said, noticing the older man's smile.
