When the boys left, Gabby tucked Ling in bed and snuggled under her own doona. Hannah was already in bed, her face turned to Gabby. They lay staring at each other in the dark. Ling seemed to fall asleep quickly, but she mumbled and stirred restlessly as if she was having bad dreams.

‘What do we do now, Han?’ Gabby whispered when Ling settled momentarily.

Hannah paused. ‘Elizabeth’s brother survived the accident. There’s a chance he may still be alive somewhere. I think we need to find him.’

‘How do we do that? It didn’t say where he went to after he left here. And he was only thirteen years old. He could be anywhere.’

‘It’s lucky I taught Sean a thing or two.’

‘What do you mean?’

Hannah propped herself up on her elbow. ‘Sean got us those articles on the treasure and the coach accident really quickly. He may be a pain in the neck but he isn’t bad on the computer. I’ve taught him heaps. I’ll get him to do a search on Thomas Croft. He might come up with something.’

‘If we knew the name of the other little girl who was at the orphanage, he could do a search on her, too. And if we could find out who Will is.’

‘Yeah.’ Hannah lay down again. ‘There must be some way to find out. Perhaps they know at the Historical Society.’

There was silence and Hannah thought that Gabby had fallen asleep—but she hadn’t.

‘Han?’ The voice was sleepy.

‘Yeah?’

‘Do you believe in ghosts?’

Hannah didn’t say anything for a long time; Gabby had fallen asleep by the time she answered.

‘I don’t know, Gab. I just don’t know.’
