Chapter 24 Summary

Carmine Torres strolls restlessly through the neighborhood. Suspecting that Olivia Sharpe wrote the letter, she decides to talk to Raleigh. Meanwhile, she continues her canvassing, bringing her face to face with the young man she saw drunk on the street. She asks him for computer help, and he suggests Raleigh Sharpe. Carmine tries to engage Adam’s mother, Glenda Newell, in gossip about the recent murder, but Glenda cuts her off and shuts the door firmly. Carmine calls Raleigh and arranges to meet him at the local coffee shop for a consultation.

Meanwhile, Raleigh’s father is summoned for another interview. Webb questions his claim that he visited his elderly aunt. Eventually, Paul Sharpe admits to owning a small cabin close to where Amanda’s body was found. He and his wife were last there a couple of weeks earlier to winter-proof it. Webb asks his permission to search it, and Paul reluctantly gives his consent. After he leaves, Webb and Moen discuss Paul’s feeble alibi. They think Paul might easily have lured Amanda to the cabin, killed her, and then sunk her car and body in the nearby lake.
