Had it been a fighting chance in Isla Water he'd have taken it. But the man in the boat! and to have one's throat cut like a deer! No! He'd kill all he could first; he'd die fighting, not fleeing. He looked at his wrist-watch. Miss Erith had been gone two hours. That meant that her slender body lay deep, deep in icy Isla.

"With the code-book at your elbow the cipher will prove to be perfectly simple. Without the code it is impossible for any human being to solve such a cipher, as you very well know.
