Chapter 1 7

WHEN ALL WAS said and done, the sheriff changed his mind about having her return with him to the station.

“Obviously you weren’t a witness and I don’t believe that you’re responsible for this child’s death. I would like to see your I.D. and get your phone number, however, in case I have any questions,” Jim said.

“Okay,” she replied, reaching into her purse. She handed him her driver’s license and he walked over to his squad car with it.

“Hopefully, they’ll I.D. the body soon,” said Alex. “You said she’s from Duluth?”

“I believe so. I’m sure the sheriff will learn pretty quickly who she is, especially since this guy let her friend go. Not many cases like that.” Carissa thought about the murdered child’s parents and knew it was going to be a devastating blow for them.

“So, the little girl in your dreams, the girl we looked at wasn’t her?”

“No,” she replied.

“Do you think he has your girl yet?’”

“I don’t know. Hopefully not. He had Amy for a few days before he killed her, though. Something tells me that it was a struggle for him to murder the little girl after he realized she wasn’t his daughter.”

“Hm. Was there anything else that you picked up on?”

The fact that he was starting to accept that she really did have psychic abilities made her want to prove herself that much more.

“Actually, there was one more thing – I almost feel like Faith’s mother may have run off with his daughter and that’s why he’s looking for her. Been looking for her.”

“So, he’s probably responsible for more than one dead child. I wonder how long he’s been searching for his daughter.”

“I don’t know. I mean, it’s possible that it’s been years and if that’s the case,” she sighed, “then Faith could even be a grown woman by now.”

He grunted. “Wouldn’t that be something?”

“Yeah.”

“I’m curious – how many cases have you helped solve?” Alex asked.

Carissa thought back. “Officially? About seven. There were a lot of others I tried helping with, but the police thought I was nuts and brushed me off.”

“It is hard to absorb. You’ve convinced me, though.”

Carissa smiled.

“So, how does this work? You have these dreams and then just pack up and go?”

“Pretty much.”

“Do you ever get paid?”

“No. I don’t expect to, either.”

“How do you earn a living then?”

“Let’s just say that I’ve made some good investment choices.”

He stared at her in surprise. “Stocks and bonds? No lottery winnings or Vegas trips?”

She laughed. “No, I don’t gamble.”

“But, you’ve been able to benefit a little financially from your psychic gifts? That’s good.”

“Not really. To be honest, my grandmother left me some money when she died. I invested it, but my broker did all the work. I didn’t use my abilities to choose the investments.”

“So, you lucked out.”

“Apparently.” Although, Carissa had felt ‘right’ about choosing her broker, however, and assumed there was some kind divine intervention involved. She never had to worry about money, although she wasn’t one to live above her means. She
