Overview

Pip reassesses the investigation after Becca’s reaction and decides Daniel da Silva has become the leading suspect. Daniel’s access to Andie’s room gives him a plausible chance to have removed the missing burner phone and hidden evidence of his connection to Andie.

The chapter shifts Pip’s next move toward confronting or investigating Daniel through the local police, raising the stakes because Daniel may be both protected by his position and linked to Jason Bell.

Summary

Pip records that Becca Bell reacted badly when Pip suggested Sal Singh might be innocent. Pip interprets Becca asking her to leave as understandable resistance after five and a half years of accepting that Sal murdered Andie and grieving on that basis.

Pip remains confident that Becca and the rest of Kilton will eventually have to accept the truth once Pip and Ravi identify the real killer of both Andie and Sal. Becca’s information has shifted Pip’s focus again, because it connects Daniel da Silva and Jason Bell as a possible team.

Pip concludes that Daniel is now a stronger suspect. Since Daniel had access to Andie’s room after Andie disappeared and may have been the first person to search it, Pip reasons that Daniel had the opportunity to take Andie’s burner phone and erase evidence of his connection to her.

Pip searches online for information about Daniel but finds nothing useful. She then notices that Kilton has only a small number of designated police officers and community support officers, making it likely Daniel will be present at the police station, though Pip doubts he will willingly tell her anything.
