Estrella nodded and said, “Okay.”

After a quick check on Keegan next door, she left with Thomas. On the drive back, Thomas, gripping the steering wheel, glanced at Estrella and said, “Jason called us, saying you might be in trouble. He was nearly panicking, his voice trembling. It’s been years since I’ve seen him so anxious.”

“How did he even know I was at Glimmering Lake?” Estrella inquired.

“No idea,” Thomas admitted. “But finding out where you are isn’t hard for him.” He then added, “Just a thought, Estrella, but are you sure you want to keep digging into the Glimmering Lake case? Maybe we’re dealing with folks who are way out of our league.”

Estrella chuckled. “Out of our league or not, I’m seeing this through.”

How could she not? If she didn’t unearth the culprits, what would become of the villagers in Glimmering Lake, or the good folks under their jurisdiction?
