In Chapter 13, Mortimer Lightwood, Eugene, and Mr. Inspector wait near Gaffer’s house to catch him, while Eugene grows troubled by his daughter’s loneliness and their secret watch. After hours without his return, Riderhood searches the river and reports finding Gaffer’s empty, damaged boat trapped between barges, leaving his whereabouts unknown.

- Eugene visits the house window, sees Gaffer’s daughter crying, and hears her call for her absent father.
- Restless and uncomfortable with their secret task, Eugene and Lightwood leave the tavern and join the watchers beneath a boat.
- The men watch the river and house through the rising and falling tide, but Gaffer does not return.
- Riderhood rows away to search familiar river spots and returns with news of Gaffer’s empty boat, damaged and caught between barges.
