Chapter 15

It was hours before the cops left.

They’d brought in a crew to take pictures and dust for fingerprints. There’d been many conversations about the events overseas as the police looked for a connection. Cooper had answered most of the questions for her.

She didn’t know what all they were doing now. She tried to keep out of it and was currently on her kitchen chair hugging a cup of coffee that Cooper had made for her. She had enough on her mind. She had to find a place to stay for the night, a few days maybe. She wasn’t staying here. She would also have to get the locks changed, but all she could think about was moving. She’d originally wanted to buy a house after the divorce but had been too unsettled and the prices were so crazy she didn’t want to make a snap decision.

Good thing she held off.

Now all she could think about was getting the hell away. If she owned the property, it would take much longer to get out.

She also wanted to move quietly so the intruder wouldn’t know. And that was foolish. He had likely been watching the house since the beginning and would be expecting exactly that. He’d just follow her to the next house.

The cops had asked her so many questions, and after all the questioning she’d been through already, she’d quickly slipped into monotone answers to get through the process as quickly as possible.

“We’ll need your contact information.”

She pulled out her cellphone and gave him her number. While in Turkey, her phone had been in the safe most of the time. Now she wondered if it was part of the problem. But to think someone had gone through her phone and tracked her to her home was over the top. Yet this wasn’t a random attack. Restless, she wanted to pack up a bag and leave…and run a long way away. Last time she’d left the country. And look at how well that had worked. She really needed a safe place to hole up and think.

She had lots of decisions to make, and no idea how to make them. First things first… “Can I go into my room and pack a bag?”

“Yes, I’ll take you up.”

She nodded and walked upstairs to her bedroom. Her mind busied, cataloging what she needed to pack. That made it easier when she arrived in her bedroom. She took one look at the bed and blanched. Then turned and hurried to the closet and pulled out her single bag. She quickly packed the bulk of her clothes before collecting the toiletries from the bathroom. As she stuffed what little she had, she realized how meager her personal possessions were. She’d done a major clean out of her belongings when she left her husband. That left her very little to move to this house. Being unsettled and needing a change, she’d avoided buying much after setting up on her own and then she’d gone overseas. Her clothing requirements, although more now than in the refugee camp, weren’t extensive.
