One such method—installing a warning bell by a local abbot—was ultimately lost to pirates, turning into legend rather than lasting aid. Mariners continued to face the risk of destruction on the submerged reef, and calls for a…-

Chapter 44
Chapter 44 marked a significant turning point in my life as I finally returned to my home, my children, and my dogs.

But I knew what he truly meant: “I can't wait to see your money—or, should I say, you.” The facade was clear to me, and despite their apparent care, I couldn’t shake the feeling that they were…-
