“I’m sure we can. You’re going to Hawaii?”
“Yes. To Ka Lae. But, I want it thought that we’re just off on a fishing cruise. No need for anyone but us to know our real reason for going.”
“Do you think Dr. Weber might be being held on the Big Island?” Biff asked.
“I think it quite likely, Biff. But there’s still another reason for us to take a good look around Ka Lae. That I’ll tell you about when we’re on our boat at sea. Would you mind hopping up to my room and getting my sun glasses, Biff? Then we’ll go see about a boat.”
Biff took the stairs to the second floor three at a stride. Li was right behind him. Biff scrambled through his father’s bag, looking for the glasses.
“Hey, Biff. Look at this!” Biff, glasses in hand, turned to see Li pointing to the mirror of the room’s dresser. He walked over for a closer look.
On the mirror, written in soap, was a message:
“JW for Cs”
CHAPTER X
Starting a Search
Biff wasted no time in getting back down to the lobby of the hotel. He told his father about the message written in soap.
