It was about that time that he realized--more with his gut than his head--that he wasn't where he'd thought he was. But somehow this didn't alarm him at all.

But the appearance of a strange woman around yet another turning did.

His jaw dropped a little further. "For me?" he squeaked.

She nodded, gravely.
