Excerpt from The Challenge
The people sent in search of them passed without adventure and in safety through, the mouth of the runway and out to the open water beyond. But the two boats with their load of human freight that had gone before them had, in the same distance, in some occult way, vanished completely. Only, the next day, just within the heads on the northern Side, they found two bodies traveling round and round and Spinning upon the Shoals like fish at play; and so, without much thought, they divined the fate that had come to all the rest.
