Pages 153-217 Summary

Carly learns the Cathy Caldwell case has a following online. Carly asks Heather about Victoria Lee, and Heather says the boyfriend was ultimately proven innocent. Heather says she can’t talk about these things anymore due to her mental health, and Carly apologizes. Heather heads to her room, telling Carly to look up Betty Graham: When she’s done she can help herself to Heather’s meds. Carly thinks about the types of women Betty, Victoria, and Cathy are. She realizes that Viv had seen Betty while working at the Sun Down. Carly thinks about what Jenny said about Viv seeming distant and moody and realizes that Viv was searching for answers.

Carly goes to the Archive Room at the Fell Library to read more articles. She wonders if the same man killed Cathy, Betty, and maybe Viv. Callum greets Carly and tells her the library is closing soon. Callum asks how the search for her aunt is going and if she would join him for dinner. Carly says she can’t because she has an appointment with Alma Trent. He asks to join her, but she says it’s not a good idea. She avoids Callum as the library is closing and goes to her car, where she listens to the voicemail from Alma.
