NOTHING MAKES SENSE ANY LONGER
Sheriff Sam ran in,
joining Todd in the kitchen, where they began to whisper out of earshot from
the others.
Shana was dying of
curiosity to hear what had them whispering to each other. She pulled Linda aside and said, “I don’t
trust anyone anymore. We should begin investigating on our own, without waiting
for Sam and Todd to plan everything for us.”
“That’s a great idea. I
don’t understand how Louise could’ve survived if Mike saw her hanging in the
gazebo. Why was she left alive? But what happened to Tom and Edward? Are they dead or alive? She kept muttering that she was sorry
but what was she sorry about? Nothing seems to make sense any--”
“That’s why we can’t trust
anyone but ourselves,” Shana said.
“Let’s begin our search at the church. Since
today is already Sunday, we’ll be there anyway. We could question the priest
about the town’s residents. I don’t know much about the people of this town or
any of the town’s sordid history. The priest has lived here many years and has probably
witnessed many unusual things.”
“Everyone else will be too busy to notice what
we’re doing: Sam and Todd have their own agenda, Louise and David won’t be up
for anything, and Mike is too concerned about himself to worry about anyone
else,” agreed Shana.
