Using Rickenbacker’s transceiver, Cutter attempts to call up Pop Ewell and anxiously you await the response.
At first, nothing but the crackle of static pours from the transceiver’s tiny speaker, but then it clears and you hear Pop’s voice coming through loud and clear: ‘We’ve made it … we’ve arrived!’
The message puts a smile back on all your faces. Cutter is about to reply when there is a terrific flash and a loud explosion. All of you are hurled backwards to the floor as the door of the lodge is blown open by the blast of a grenade.
