After Vesper Book 3...
Chapter 1: Arrival
Amy and Dan Cahill stepped out of the dark plane and into a bright ray of sunlight. Squinting, they got their first look at Icaria, a tiny Greek island out in the middle of the Mediterranean. Large producer of coconuts and bananas. Also, Cahill vacation hotspot.
Dan hooted as he dropped his bags and ran into the sparkling blue Aegean. Amy groaned as she heaved Dan's backpack and the rest of their bags, including a pet carrier holding their beloved cat, Saladin, over to the taxi waiting for them.
"Dan!" she called. "If you don't get in NOW, we're leaving for the hotel without you."
Dan mumbled something under his breath about bossy sisters, but eventually, he reached their car and climbed in. They sped off towards the middle of the island, where the resort was.
The Cahill Resort was famous among the Cahill family, but only few people were ever available for vacation. Amy, Dan, and their crew at Attleboro decided that it was time for some luxury, since the instructions from Vesper one had ceased. They had agreed to meet up in Icaria for a week, or until Vesper One sent them another text message with instructions. Amy found it hard to relax when she knew that the lives of Nellie and the others were in the ruthless Vesper's hands, but for once she agreed with Jonah, they needed to "chill out".
Once the car reached the hotel, Amy paid the driver, and the two sibling set off. Their rooms were on the top level, with an amazing view of the thick rainforest, stretching beach, and ropes course. This would be fun.
As soon as Amyput her suitcase on her bed, her cell phone buzzed. A text from Sinead popped up. It read:
WANT TO GO TO POOL? HAMILTON AND JONAH ALREADY THERE.
Amy agreed, and five minutes later, she had a new bikini on and was ready to go out.
Dan stopped jumping on the bed abruptly and frowned. "Where are you going?"
Amy rolled her eyes. "The pool, you dweeb. And this is just for the older kids. Go to the arcade or something where you won't bother anyone." The last thing Amy needed on her vacation was for Dan to ruin it by getting kicked out on their first day.
After Amy left, Dan flopped down on his mattress. What could he do? Atticus, his best friend, was with his father and brother doing research in Rome, and would be away for a month. No friends = no fun. Obviously, Amy didn't want him to go down to the pool, but maybe he could spy on them. There was definitely a spark between Hamilton and Sinead, but Amy would catch him for sure. No, he needed a better way of getting to them.
Suddenly, Dan sat bolt upright in his bed. Of course. A way to make Amy and the others to spill their secrets...a Truth Serum!
But how were you supposed to make a Truth Serum? "This is a Cahill resort." Dan muttered to himself. "Anything is possible."
Sorry, this chapter is super short, but the next ones will be longer. That is a promise. Please review!
