Chapter 11 Summary: “Cornwall, 2003”

Sadie returns to the library. Alastair has some new documentation for her: newspaper archives and a dissertation on Daffyd Llewellyn’s book. Unfortunately, the information from the archives doesn’t contain any new information. The only new thing is a picture of the Edevanes shortly following Theo’s disappearance. Sadie recognizes the look on Eleanor’s face, a look that communicates she has lost a part of herself.

The photo causes Sadie to remember when she found Caitlyn Bailey. Sadie doesn’t cry, ever, because of things she has witnessed as a cop, but the Bailey girl makes it very difficult for her not to. Sadie sees too many parallels between the Bailey and Edevane cases, and she has let her emotions dictate too many of her actions.

When Sadie returns to her grandfather’s house they talk briefly about the Edevane case. Some flowers force Sadie to recollect the time she was with her grandmother shortly before Sadie gave birth. Bertie presents her with some new information about the Edevanes, something Louise brought by. It’s the old papers Alice had written about her family, The Loeanneth Gazette. Also, Louise knows someone who used to be a maid for the Edevanes. Louise doesn’t know how her friend came by the papers.
