At a table near the bar, Mitch watched as a short wiry man walked over. 
He frowned at Mitch. " Are you looking for me?".
" Are you Mr Abanks?".
" That's me". His voice hesitated. " What do you want?".
" My name is Mitch McDeere". Mitch grinned. " I'm a lawyer from Memphis".
" What do you want?".
" The two men who died with your son were friends of mine".
Mr Abanks sighed. " Let's take a walk on the beach".
" Sure".
The two men got up. They walked out. They crossed the street to the nearby beach. 
They began to walk.
" I'd like to talk about the accident". Mitch frowned. " What might of caused it?".
" I don't know". He frowned. " The boat was badly damaged most of the clues went up in flames".
" Was it your boat?".
" Yes". He stared at Mitch. " Why are you so interested in this accident Mr McDeere?".
" The families have a lot of questions".
