Chapter 70

Dave and Chief Carr finished their business talk at the graveside and walked to their cars. When Dave reached his car he was astounded to not find Tory waiting in the truck. She had planned to ride to and from the cemetery with him. Had she decided to take a ride home with her mother or Sue and Brandon since he got hung up with Chief Carr? Before he got in the truck, he took out his cell phone while he surveyed the cemetery in hopes he would catch sight of Tory. No such luck today. He called Anne on his phone.

"It's Dave. Did Tory get a ride from the cemetery with you or Sue?"

"No, she insisted on waiting for you. Is something wrong?" Anne answered with fear in her voice.

"Okay, thanks, Anne. Talk to you soon."

Dave hurried to catch Chief Carr before he left. "Chief, have you seen Tory?"

"Not since the funeral service. Why?"
