A mystery in British Columbia
Cold Feet
When the first tennis shoe-clad human foot washed up on the rocky uninhabited shores of Jedediah Island in British Columbia's Georgia Strait last August, it was strange but not unprecedented.... But then came a second foot, found 60 miles from the first just six days later, bobbing in the saltwater off Gabriola Island. A third was found on Feb. 8, off Valdes Island to the south, and a fourth on May 22, at Kirkland Island. A beachcomber pulled a fifth to shore on Westham Island after noticing it in the water on June 16. All five were discovered within 125 miles of one another, floating in the same circle of currents that wraps around the strait, leading to increasing speculation that the lost limbs may be connected somehow.
Mr Cussler, I hope you are reading this! This will make a brilliant start to your next novel.
