As Rachel reached the door, Maria Oliver called out in a voice that was shaky and near tears. I really am sorry I ran, she said. I was feeling very guilty about taking part in messing up that building. If Id known what you were really looking for, I would not have wasted your time.

Rachel nearly walked out without even acknowledging this comment. But knowing that she was being purposefully rude was only making her even angrier with herself. Yes, she kept telling herself that she would not feel sorry for herself but at the root of it all, thats basically what was going on. She was throwing a little tantrum because the God that Maria Oliver so firmly believed in had dealt her a shitty hand.

She said nothing, but did manage to give Maria a nod of acknowledgement without coming off as nasty. She stepped out into the hallway, feeling as if shed just dodged a bullet. Another few moments in there with Maria and she thought she may have ended up saying something that would have been considered too far. And the last thing she needed was for to Jack to have one more thing to add to his pile of ammo the next time he asked if there was something going on with her.

Jack stepped out a few seconds later, closing the door softly and quietly behind him. She was almost certain he was going to ask what was wrongwhat was bothering her so badly. Instead, he simply sighed and sagged against the wall.

Initial thoughts? he said.

Its doubtful its her. That, or shes an Academy Award-level actress.

Her willingness to hand her phone over for location services is what did it for me, Jack said. He had taken out his own phone and was typing something into it. It certainly wasnt going all holy-roller preacher and telling me how everyone is a sinner. He said this as he started scrolling through something on his phone.

What are you looking for? she asked.

Checking local news to see if we can at least verify a clinic that has been defaced recently. Maybe Ill check Facebook or social media posts with that specific search to find it if the local news reports arent enough.

It all registered for Rachel right away, but one particular nugget stuck out. Social media, she said.

What about it?

Maybe thats how the killer was finding the women, she said, the idea suddenly seeming brighter and brighter by the moment. Maybe theres no leak…maybe hes just really dedicated and knows where to look on social media.
