By now, he had disappeared from sight, but the image of his retreating figure lingered in her mind.

She compared it to the person in the photo-almost an exact match.

She worried even more for her son, wondering if Isabel might harm him.

Rachel adding fuel to fire, her anxiety grew. She felt that she needed to act quickly, using any means necessary, even drastic ones,
