CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

The drive to the airport was a quick one, as only twenty-eight miles separated Evelyn Marshall’s home from the airport entrance. Along the way, Rhodes made a few calls, first to Nolan and then to airport security, instructing them to attempt to locate and potentially detain a passenger that could be arriving any minute, by the name of Evelyn Marshall.

As Rhodes was on the phone taking care of all of this, Chloe received a call. She did not recognize the number but when on a case like this, where things suddenly seemed to be moving along quite fast, that did not matter. She answered it as she maintained a speed of eighty-five on the interstate.

“This is Agent Fine,” she answered.

“Agent Fine, this is Deanna Riotti with the Northern Virginia Forensics Lab. I’ve got some preliminary results for you on a hair sample that was rushed to us by Deputy Nolan out in Falls Church.”

“Great. What do you have for me?”

“This hair sample taken from one Rachel Dobbs does not appear to be a match to the sample taken from the crime scene of Jessica Fairchild’s murder. Let me stress…these are just preliminary findings. Nolan indicated you needed results quickly, so I wanted to give you something.”

“Thanks,” Chloe said. “Just so I’m clear…there are still tests than need to be run, but based on initial findings, there’s no match?”

“Correct. And about ninety percent of the time, these preliminary findings turn out to be the end result as well.”

“Thanks for the update,” Chloe said, ending the call and returning her full attention to road ahead.

Rhodes, having just ended a call herself, looked over to her with anticipation and a bit of excitement in her eyes. “Forensics?”

“Yeah. The hair I got from Dobbs isn’t a match to the one found at the crime scene.”

“Which makes Evelyn Marshall even more interesting,” Rhodes commented.

Chloe nodded her agreement and pressed down a little harder on the gas.
