“It’s got to be him,” Stefan said. Alex and Lara nodded in agreement. They were sitting in Alex’s room, comparing the photos Alex took of the fat man sitting in Tomas’s car to an online photo of the Snowman.

Even though they couldn’t make a positive identification—all they could tell was that the face of the man in Tomas’s car was roughly the same shape as the Snowman’s— when you put that together with the passport, the plastic surgeon’s website on Tomas’s computer, and the slivovitz for an honoured guest, it all added up.

“We have to find him before he gets his passport,” Alex said. “If he’s had the operation, he’ll leave the country as soon as soon he gets it. And then we’ll never find him.”

“I don’t think he’s had the operation,” Lara said. “If I was Koralic I’d want to change the shape of my face and it would take months to recover from that. His face would still be bandaged.”

“Is there any way we can find out who the plastic surgeon is?” Stefan asked.

“It’s got to be somebody local,” Alex said. He flipped open his computer. “How many can there be?”

“More than you think,” Lara said.

She was right. According to Google there were fifty-six plastic surgeons in the Lower Mainland.

“Tomas must have been in contact with him in order to make all the arrangements,” Alex said.

“Or her,” said Lara.

“Or her. We need to get on Tomas’s computer,” Alex said.

“And just how do you plan on doing that?” Stefan asked.
