“So, we compared those pictures you sent over to the images we have of the so-called artwork that was up at our gallery.”

Morhart felt like the tide was finally breaking. The images would match. Shannon was about to confirm that Becca was the girl depicted in those photographs. He didn’t know whether to be pleased or disappointed. A connection between her and the gallery would be a step toward a resolution, but he suspected it would not be a happy one in light of the murder that had occurred there.

“No match.”

Morhart found himself relieved. He wanted Becca to be safe even more than he wanted answers. “Are you sure? You said your pictures didn’t have any faces in them.”

“The ones on display in the museum—or the gallery, I guess—just showed little snippets of bare skin, but we’ve actually found some other photographs that are of more interest to us.”

“What other pictures?”

“Stuff that wouldn’t be on display anywhere.”

“Are these minors? Is it child pornography?”

“Christ, Morhart. You’re worse than my partner. Can you let me get a word in, here? We’ve got a bunch of pictures, and trust me, none of them matches. Your girl was a little, um, softer than the girls in these pictures. But it doesn’t matter, okay? You were right. There’s a connection.”

“I don’t understand.”

“The fingerprints. We had them run the latents picked up from the gallery against the prints you pulled from your vic’s bedroom. We found a right index and ring finger match on the bathroom doorknob.”

“She was there.”

“Correct. Becca Stevenson was inside the Highline Gallery.”
