But it is too far from the edge, and Mona, standing irresolutely on the brink, pauses, as though half afraid to take the step that must either land her safely on the other side or else precipitate her into the angry little river.，Since becoming an aide to the Chief, Bob had not entirely given up his unofficial inspection trips.
