On the lawn were Singer and his two deputies, each equipped with a canine partner, as Singer passed a shirt that was instantly recognizable as Robbie's around so that the dogs could get a scent. Freddie felt even more uneasy as the three of them began arming themselves with rifles. "Do you always use dogs and guns to track down suspects out here?" Freddie asked, in an almost accusatory way.

Your friend… or some-one around here… is bringing up a lot of bad memories that people on this island would rather forget." "And that gives the right to just hunt him down like an a****l?"

"Come in," said a weak voice from the other side. The dark haired Seattle resident, juggled the plate for just a moment as she pushed open the door, earning a fast glance from Jade, who was sprawled on the bed, looking out the window, as she walked in. There was no hiding the intense anger and disappointment written across her face when she saw that it was just Carly.
