Kennon checked in at the commandant's office before he left for the main island. "How is Douglas?" he asked. "He's alive," Mullins said. "We flew him to Albertsville and good riddance. How are the Lani?" "They'll be all right," Kennon said. "It's just food poisoning. I suggest you check your kitchen and your food handlers.
