The Corpse Without A Country (1987) - Plot & Excerpts
There were some clothes, the outfit Arne had lent me the night before. She had tossed it on the bed in the guest bedroom. I went in there and put it on. We went into town in her car and I used part of Ilona’s five hundred dollars to buy a sport coat, a pair of slacks, and shoes. Jodi thought it was very funny that the outfit I liked best leaned heavily toward brown. I climbed back into her car, dressed in my new clothes. “Shut up,” I said. “You saw how little choice I had.” Jodi gurgled a while longer. Then she said, “Now where, Peter?” I touched my wallet where the bank note wrapper was folded away. “I want to talk to Arne first,” I said. We drove to his yard on the Canal. The Norway Queen was where she had been the night before, and the Flyer occupied the dock opposite. She had apparently come in during the night and was now waiting for Reese to begin repairing the fire damage. From where I stood, I could see the black streaks by her engine room hatch. Jodi and I walked down the dock to the Queen.
