#Chapter 91 – Good News and Bad News

ARTHUR

At six a.m., my private investigator called. “Well, I have good news, and I have bad news,” Ethan said.

“Give me the good news first."

“The good news is I checked the police stations, the hospitals, the funeral parlors, and the morgue. Your woman isn’t in any of those."

I let out a breath. It sounded like a huge whoosh, like a tornado was being released from my lungs.

“That’s a relief.”

“The bad news is, I’ve searched everywhere for use of her credit card. Nothing. I checked Grand Central Station, the airports, the video cams from the bus stations. There's no trace of her. I had my investigators go to all the hotels that take cash where people usually run in cases of a domestic abuse situation…"

My fist clenched. This was not a domestic abuse situation, but I didn’t interrupt him.

“Still nothing. I did look at the video surveillance for some major intersections, but I didn’t spot anything. Of course, that’s not every cam in the city. I’m still checking.”
