THat's great, congrats. I'm back from the UK and my research trip.
Here's more of Like Stone picking up from a few weeks back.
She nodded her head, struggling to rein in her emotions. “There’s an open missing person’s file but that’s it. No one’s looking into it anymore. I’ve done so much work, found so many leads but I’m not a detective. I can’t do any more. Please, help me.”
She pushed the file folder to me. I opened it up and saw bundles of work inside; tablets filled with who knew what, phone bills, cards from all sorts of women’s shelters and people locators, all arranged meticulously by month and year. Obsession didn’t cover it.
I looked into her eyes and saw she expected rejection. “I don’t know what you expect me to do. We don’t know there’s been a murder or even one that’s in my jurisdiction. The best I can do is hand this right over to Kate, here. She’s a private detective.” I felt I was more than fair with that. Kate was a good detective even if this was more normal than she was used to dealing with at Angel Investigations. Empathetic sadness bubbled up in me for Ms. Nyhammer. Her story was all too common but no less tragic.
