He was right. She couldn’t pretend this away and after three days, it apparently wasn’t going away anytime soon. Why couldn’t they just leave her alone? She’d told the police all she knew.
Jerry Lester had killed Christina Fairgate. He’d also killed six other children from surrounding communities over the past three years. No one had connected those murders to each other or to him because no bodies had been found. The children were listed as missing. But Lester had a plan. He wanted life in prison, didn’t want to face the possibility of a death sentence. He was using the bodies as leverage. Cut him a deal for life rather than death and he’d tell where the bodies were buried.
Darby knew nothing of Lester’s work prior to the four New Orleans children who’d gone missing. The media didn’t seem to understand that. Those supposedly in the know about clairvoyance called her a liar, claimed she had to know. But she didn’t.
Maybe she’d spent so many years blocking that she couldn’t see as much as she needed to. Who was she kidding? She wouldn’t have been able to focus her “gift” at all without Madam Talia’s assistance. That, thankfully, was still her secret. Madam Talia had told no one.
Oddly, until last night, dreams had not come even without the aid of medication. It was as if Madam Talia had helped her to see what she needed to and the show was over. She saw, felt, nothing else…until last night. A frown nagged at her brow. She’d awoken in the wee hours of the morning in a cold sweat. She’d dreamed of a dark man…touching her…watching her. He had made her feel things she’d never felt before. Her body tingled even now at the memory.
“Don’t you agree, Ms. Shepard?”
Darby dragged her attention from the troubling thoughts. “I’m sorry. What were you saying?”
