Sully sat next to Val on Monica’s couch. “I tried to set Gabe straight, but I can’t lie. He’s a skeptic. I don’t think he believes you had anything to do with the fire though. He may think you’re covering for someone.”

“Who?”

Sully raised an eyebrow. “Your son does work at Russell House.”

Val said, “See, that’s where you guys don’t realize what kind of mom Monica is.”

“Yeah,” Robin said. “If one of Monica’s kids had done this and she knew about it, she’d be the one calling the cops.”

“And I wouldn’t bail them out either.” Monica sat with her arms crossed. “The world isn’t going to give my boys a break, so I can’t either.” She paused. “Maybe on their birthday.”

“Fair enough,” Sully said. “I’m just telling you what direction Gabe is looking in.”

“Well, he’s not going to find anything. Jake didn’t do it.”

“I’m going to question Jake anyway,” Sully said. “Just so you know. That will let him get his alibis on the record. And I can’t be seen playing favorites just ’cause I know the family.”

“Arson.” Robin muttered the word. “Arson is about anger. About making internal destruction external, right? Who in Glimmer Lake is angry at Grimmer?”

Monica spread her hands. “Who even thinks about Grimmer anymore? The last people who ever lived there have mostly passed away. I don’t think an eighty-year-old arsonist is very likely.”

Val said, “The old residents have passed, but their families are still out there.” She turned to Robin. “Did you recognize any of the other names in that newspaper article? The one about the dissatisfied families?”

“You think an old resident of Grimmer—or a descendant of one—who didn’t like their financial settlement is going after the last bits of Grimmer this many years later?” Sully frowned. “It’s a stretch.”

Robin said, “I’m worried about the ghosts.”

“By definition, aren’t ghosts pretty safe?” Sully asked. “They’re already dead. What’s the worst that could happen to them?”

“They’re quiet.” Robin continued, ignoring Sully. “There’s something going on.”

“So we keep trying to contact Bethany,” Monica said. “Maybe once you tell her you know how she died—that no one blames her or her sister for the fire—she’ll talk to you again.”

“I’ll try.”

“We need to try to find the woman,” Sully said. “The one Val keeps seeing waking up at the cabins. If we find her, we can tie these crimes together.”

“But Sully, I don’t think she’s setting the fires. If she is, she’s not conscious of it. Everything I’m getting from her is confusion, fear, panic—”

“Either way,” Sully said, “victim or perpetrator, if she’s at the scene, she’s in danger. It’s also possible this is someone who’s just trying to get by sleeping in these abandoned cabins and she’s being targeted. If that’s the case, she’s in danger and this arsonist is after her.”

“So Robin is going to try to contact Bethany again,” Monica said. “I’ll go to the library and see if Gail has any old maps. Let’s try to find out which cabins around here existed before the dam was built.
