Chapter 28 - The Missing NurseDetective Miller traced the old hospital staff.
One name kept appearing.
Evelyn Harper.
A nurse who had worked the night Emily disappeared.
She had resigned immediately afterward.
Then vanished.
Miller eventually found her.
She was living under another name in a quiet town three hours away.
David and Leah drove there.
The elderly woman opened the door.
The moment she saw David, tears filled her eyes.
“You look like your father.”
David stepped forward.
“You knew him?”
“Yes.”
“Did you know Emily?”
The woman nodded.
“I was there.”
David's heart pounded.
“What happened?”
Evelyn looked toward the street.
Then locked the door.
“Your mother believed Emily was dead.”
David frowned.
“But she wasn't?”
“No.”
“Then where was she?”
Evelyn looked at Clara's photograph.
“Your father found her.”
David's eyes widened.
“Where?”
“He found the woman who had taken her.”
“Who?”
Evelyn whispered a name.
A name David had never heard.
May you like
Margaret's sister.
His aunt.
