Dr. Haugstad drove her Mercedes down Wilshire Boulevard. In case they found the boy, she’d come with two of Alexander’s men, and one of them sat next to her in the front seat, trying to get a fix on the GPS location they’d been given. The coordinates were for Mia Darby’s cell phone, but with a complex as large as the L.A. County Museum, pinpointing the exact location would not have been easy until Fiona saw the flashing lights of several police cruisers. She didn’t bother with locating a suitable and legal parking spot. She followed an ambulance onto the property.

“This has to be it,” she said. “I don’t believe in coincidences.”

“Close enough.” The man nodded.

The minute she parked and saw the damage, the busted front door and the strange animals and distraught people running from the building, her heart elevated to an alarming rate. If Lucas had been cornered in the building, she had a suspicion of what might’ve happened if he felt threatened. She hoped he hadn’t been arrested. That would only complicate things.

“Quickly, we must find Mia Darby,” she ordered her men and got out of the car. “She could prove to be an invaluable asset, but not if she talks to the authorities. And you...” She pointed to one of the men. “See if there are any surveillance cameras inside. We need those recordings, at least a copy of them. Pay whatever you must.”

Fiona picked up her step and followed her men. When she got inside, she stood in silence as her eyes took in the shocking aftermath. She wanted to remember everything. She had a feeling what happened here would be of great significance.

She didn’t have to look for Mia Darby. The girl came to her with trembling hands and shaky voice.

“You should have seen it. I don’t know what happened. I can’t find my sister and Lucas....” Tears fell now. The girl looked as if she’d collapse.

“Mia, please focus.” She took the girl by the shoulders with a firm grip and looked her in the eye. “Tell me what you saw. Every detail, no matter how trivial.”

The Darby girl rambled about blue lights and animals and people fighting in the middle of an earthquake. If Fiona didn’t know any better, she could have sworn the girl had experienced a psychotic break. Shaking with adrenaline, Mia recounted her story, sounding as if she suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder. Fiona had many questions that would have to come later.

Now they had to assess the situation quickly and mitigate damages. She’d overheard witnesses talking about it being an earthquake, and another person thought it had been an underground gas explosion because of the color of the flames. But without books being burned and no other building in the complex affected, Fiona felt satisfied the police would need time to sort things out. They may never come up with an answer, but she had her own theories. Although she had to get the Darby girl out of there to question her under a controlled setting, one question could not wait.
