Sam paced the small front room of the Latimers’ guest cottage, and then paused at the window to peer out over the dark landscape. All there was to see was inky blackness. Anything could have been standing cloaked in darkness on the other side of the window and she wouldn’t know it. She should have been used to that from her own family’s cottage, but this wasn’t her family’s cottage. This was one of the Latimers’ guest cabins, and Sam wasn’t terribly comfortable in it. She was very aware that Cathy Latimer had gone missing from the main house not a hundred feet behind the cabin she was in. That knowledge was creeping her out. What if Cathy had been kidnapped? What if whoever had taken her was still around? What if—?

She stopped that train of thought at once, knowing it couldn’t lead anywhere good. It didn’t stop her wishing that Mortimer would hurry and get back so she was no longer alone. He’d brought her directly here after leaving the O.P.P. station. They’d arrived to find Sergeant Belmont standing around with a couple of his constables, looking officious but not actually doing anything useful.

The man had admitted that the situation appeared fishy and promised that he’d look into the matter. He’d then been reluctant to hand over the keys to the property. Sam had been forced to call her boss, and have him call the Latimers in Europe, to have them call Belmont on his own cell phone, to tell him they wanted her to stay there and he had their permission to give her the keys.

Martin Latimer had then apparently asked to speak to her. Tight-lipped, Belmont had handed over his phone and stomped off to kick at rocks and branches a little distance away. Mr. Latimer had thanked Sam for what she was doing and assured her she was welcome to use anything at the estate while there. In the meantime, he was working on arranging a flight back. He hoped he and his wife, Trisha, would be able to return to Canada the next day and be up at the cottage by evening.

Sam had assured him she’d do what she could until they arrived, but couldn’t offer much reassurance to the man. He wouldn’t be reassured until his daughter was found safe and sound. The moment the phone call had ended, Sam had approached Belmont and traded the mobile phone for Cathy’s keys. At least most of them. He’d kept the key to the house, claiming it was a crime scene and she couldn’t enter. The man and his officers had left shortly after.

Once they were gone, Mortimer had joined her on a tour of the three guest cottages on the property, holding her arm to steady her as they traveled the paths in the darkening evening. He’d stayed until she’d decided which cabin to use and then had headed back to Magnetawan. But he was returning. Mortimer was only heading back to get them both
