Chapter 171

"Where you off to?" Max called after me, his voice trailing behind me as I stormed away.

I yelled without looking back, "I'm going to the police station to spill all the dirt on Tracey. Let's see how you protect her after I tell them everything she's done, from arson to murder!"

Ronald looked a bit surprised to see me but quickly composed himself. "What brings you here?"

"I need to check some case files," I said, trying to sound more in control than I felt.

Ronald hesitated but eventually led me to start the paperwork.

"Are these all the recent cases of burned bodies?" I frowned, looking through a stack of case files.

Ronald put his hands on his hips and nodded. "Yes, all recent. All the victims were pregnant women. It's been tough to get fingerprints or DNA, and even when we find the victims' families, they refuse to identify them." I chuckled dryly, my eyes landing on the name May. I felt like I had seen that name before.
