Deep Waters William Wymark Jacobs "No, you bought it," ses Peter, "and if you don't go shares we'll split on you--see? Then you can't sell it anyway, and perhaps you won't even get the reward. We can be at Orange Villa as soon as wot you can." "Sooner," ses Ginger, nodding. "But there's no need to do that. If 'e don't go shares I'll slip round to the police-station fust thing in the morning." "You know the way there all right," ses Sam, very bitter. "And we don't want none o' your back-answers," ses Ginger. "Are you going shares or not?" We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.
