"There were three things about which I was absolutely certain. First, I didn't have my cell phone. Second, my hands hurt from gripping the trunk lid closed. They would probably be useless to put up a fight. And, third—I'd made peace with myself. I already found out what had happened to Charlotte Jones…. I did the best I could do. I felt accomplished and, even though I was scared sh*tless, I felt… complete. The car turned off. The door opened and slammed shut. I'd made peace with myself… but I couldn't stop my body from trembling like a leaf. I was still scared I was going to die. Was I going to die?" *** Please comment about anything. Errors, you liked it, hated it (explain yourself), not your cup of tea, whatever.
