Some details

The Synopsis seem to include details not in the story (my copy of the story anyway). I find no mention of jewels, only old gold and silver coins. No mention of the car beeing vintage. And no mention of the boddies actually washing up at a beach. Are there different versions of the story maybe, or just a mistake? Ttias (talk) 12:18, 16 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
