Skye watches eagerly as a technician analyzes the fingerprint from James’s car; unfortunately, it does not match Skye’s. Skye decides that she wants to stay with Brecia (rather than return to staying with her mother) because Brecia is “the one other person who really underst[ands] what happened to [her]” (171). Brecia and Skye are together, observing, when the local Idaho police get a call from Detective Domanska in Utah; she has heard that they have searched James Carson’s car.
In Utah, Meghan watches as Domanska reacts angrily to the news that the Idaho police have already released the car; Domanska hurriedly sends them Meghan’s fingerprints so that they can check to see if there is a match.
Brecia and Skye watch as James comes to retrieve his car; while he doesn’t know that the police from Utah have been in contact about Meghan’s murder, the women can tell that “he kn[ows] the net [i]s closing” (175). Skye goes home with James and his family to monitor him, while Brecia stays at the police station.
