“Um. Run,” Bob said. “Run faster. You really need to run faster, Harry.”

My feet flew over the grass.

Thomas reached the bridge first, his feet thumping out onto it. Michael got there a pace later. With a broken rib and twenty years on me, he still outran me to that damn bridge. I’ve got to work out more.

“Made it!” I shouted, taking a last long step toward the bridge.

The lariat hit me about the throat before my feet had quite touched down, and jerked me back through the air with a snap. I lay on the ground, stunned, choking for the second time in two hours.

“Uh-oh,” Bob said. “Harry. Whatever you do, don’t drop me. Especially under a rock.”

“Thanks a lot,” I gasped, reaching up to jerk the rope from its constricting hold on my throat.
The perils of travel in the Nevernever!!
