Fearing what the future holds, she decides to set the pet free but, while doing so, misses the boat back to England. After meeting up with a friendly native, they try to resolve the situation together. Things take a turn for the worse when it is falsely reported that the native has kidnapped her, thus putting a price on his head. Written by Kevin Steinhauer See less
