The sad eyes of the house look out warily while it blank white door stays shut. Dead to the world outside and only knowing the old knarled trees and the rough slats of the fence sticking up like a witch's blackened teeth. Only the house and the sea know the secrets of Smuggler's Nook. Something avails the land- four developers tried to buy it and everytime something happened. Something nice - a marriage, an unexpected invitation to go a live in Australia with a long-lost grandchild- a win on the lottery. Nice or not, though, it meant that Smuggler's Nook stayed as it always had.
