Chapter 11

“Where are you going?” Maisie said, as she followed Miranda out of the room.

Miranda had to wait until they were out of earshot. Somewhere in the house were two other people also, Leah and Ashton, and she didn’t want to be caught by one of those two in a conversation she couldn’t explain. She worked her way toward the back of the house and found a door out into the back yard.

“I’m going to see where you died,” Miranda answered once they were outside. “I need to see it for myself.”

“But, Miranda,” Kyle argued, ever the pessimist. “The police have already been all over the scene. I heard Jack talking about it when he was interviewing Paul and the others. There was nothing there to see.”

“I know, but maybe there’s something they missed.” Miranda shrugged as she picked her way through a maze of rose bushes and petunias and hedge rows of short, spiky bushes. “After all, they didn’t have all the information that Jack and I have gotten hold of since then, now did they?”

“True, true,” he mused, floating along with Maisie. “Still. We know she was pushed from up here. We know she was killed. What else are you hoping to find out? Do you think maybe the murderer spray painted his name on one of these trees or something?”

That was a ludicrous idea, but now that he was pointing them out, Miranda saw that there were several stout trees all around the edge of the cliff, some of them growing out at an odd angle as they clutched the very end of the yard, where the soil grew thin and the rocks took over before dropping at a sheer slope to the rocks on the beach below. Between the trees and the bushes and the flowering plants, Natasha must spend a majority of her time out here tending to the garden.

“Do you remember anything,” Miranda asked Maisie, “now that you’re out here again?”

The woman’s ghost floated right near the edge. She stared out, her hands held forward, as if she was remembering the moment that she was shoved. She stood there, for a long time, and Kyle and Miranda waited for her to work through whatever she was feeling and experiencing.

“Here,” she said after another long moment. “It was right here that I was standing when I got… pushed.”

“Right here?” Miranda asked gently, standing in nearly the same spot. From here, she could see the drop. She could see how Maisie would have fallen in an arc to land right there on those rocks…

And she saw something else, too.

“Miranda,” Kyle said, “what is it?”

She turned around in a circle, facing back toward the Wells homestead. “Tell me what you see, Kyle. Or, more accurately, tell me what you don’t see?”

Kyle looked around with her, while Maisie still hovered over the cliff. He changed his position a couple of times, but in the end he just shook his head. “I don’t get it. What am I supposed to be looking for?”

“Where’s the house?”

Kyle stared at her like she’d lost her mind.
