Chapter 16

As the computer powered on, a soft glow filled the room. Lotty hoped it wouldn’t wake Aiden. He’d been teething and couldn’t seem to fall asleep anywhere but in her arms. She’d held him for almost an hour, since just past two a.m., but was anxious to set him down and resume her research online. She wanted to find any information she could about the three people whose bodies had been dug up and dumped in Strawberry Lake Estates. Jason’s friend hadn’t contacted them about the underground site yet and this research was the only thing she could think to do to help.

She slowly bent down toward the sofa in the office and Aiden’s long breaths held steady. She set him down and inched her arms out from under him. He whimpered and she froze, arms still halfway under his little body. When the wrinkles in his face relaxed, she wiggled her arms free and inched back to the computer.

She’d already searched one name, the only woman, Patty Henderson. Patty had sold insurance for the past twenty years and had plenty of friends and family, but beyond that, Lotty couldn’t find much. She looked up another name, Scott Willard. There was more information about him, but most of it had to do with his job as a project inspector. She saved several articles, determined to read them all later. It was difficult to make her eyes focus this time of night. The third name, Jerry Masters, turned up nothing except for his obituary. He was a retired English teacher from Texas, who’d moved to Montana with his wife five years ago. Since Jerry didn’t seem to have any social media accounts, Lotty decided to look up his children. As she opened Facebook, Aiden began to whimper. Lotty sighed as his cry escalated into screams within seconds. She walked to the sofa and picked him up, frustrated that she’d found nothing helpful. She settled into the rocking chair in Aiden’s room and he snuggled against her as her eyelids grew heavy.
