Charlie Pike scanned through the entries. A beige truck left the reserve at 1623 hours, Ontario plate 209LDA, registered owner William Wabigoon. That was 4:23 p.m. The same vehicle returned thirty-two minutes later. Must have been Freda’s truck, Pike thought. The one Greg Keeshig saw broken down at the side of the road.

Pete Bissonnette had already pulled a copy of Bill Wabigoon’s record off CPIC. A couple of common assaults. Nothing for more than ten years.

Nineteen other vans, trucks, and SUVs had been observed heading up to the blockade. Three of the registered owners had records, including everything from traffic violations to possession of drugs and firearms offences.

Sheldon Waubasking’s bylaw truck had gone back and forth to the blockade twice. But Sheldon had no adult criminal record, only his youth convictions, and that record was sealed: O’Malley had made sure of that.

Nothing else stood out. The OPP hadn’t checked any of the tires or tire widths on the vehicles that passed them. They were looking for armed protesters, not the Highway Strangler. They had no idea at the time that a woman had been murdered and left in the woods.

“Thanks,” Pike said to Bissonnette. He looked out the window. The sun was low in the sky. “I think maybe I’ll head up to the blockade now.”

“Yeah, well, keep your fucking head down. It’s a full moon tonight.”
