Chapter 26

Pam isn’t at all surprised by what she learns. It’s rather a disappointment for her to comprehend that Bill is using Mrs. Yori’s basement as a new hiding place; just as he has used his own attic, his garage, his shed, and other places on the property. If there’s one thing she can take away from the information supplied by her son, and her soon-to-be son-in-law, it’s that Bill has never before strayed to a neighboring house to hide from her, or his family. Perhaps the main lesson that she will learn this early evening is that she better keep a closer eye on him so he doesn’t roam too far. What if she isn’t able to find him someday? Then what will she do? God only knows. Now’s the time to put her claws deep into him and keep him at home. For keeps.
