Boudoir Secrets

Chapter 48

Detective Harrison looked at his watch again. Tara hadn't shown up today and it was already past lunch. She usually waited at the front door in the morning and was out scouring streets all day with an assigned policeman. That wasn't the case today. He organised for someone from the police squad to check up on her. Tara may have gotten the flu? Something didn't feel right.

An hour later he was informed that she hadn't slept in the hotel last night and that there was no trace of her. She had no belongings. Nothing that could be used to trace her. He called her mobile again but there was no response. It simply rang out. He started getting that nauseating feeling in the pit of his gut. He knew something had happened to her. Detective Harrison questioned the police officer that had scouted the city with her yesterday. She said that there was nothing strange nor memorable from the previous day that would indicate a cause for concern.

They had one picture of Tara with her sister Kali.

Both girls were now on the list. He hoped that they would both be found alive rather than dead.

Constable Miller locked the door to the toilet and pulled out her mobile phone. Quickly she found his number and typed a message.

Just got questioned about Tara. No trace to you. The sisters have no family. Easy.

Pressing send, she waited for confirmation, smiled and walked out confidently.
