Overview
Sergeant Luke Carter resumes questioning Harrison Woolf, pressing for contacts and context. Harrison insists Eden was happy, had no friends, and their move was a fresh start. He confirms their daughter is eighteen and homeschooled, and, after resisting, reveals he is CEO of Thanatos. The interview sharpens contradictions around Eden’s state of mind and Harrison’s guardedness.
Summary
At Hope Falls police station, Sergeant Luke Carter continues interviewing Harrison Woolf, asking for their daughter’s contact details and any friends Eden might have had. Harrison resists, asserting their daughter is eighteen but “still just a child,” and claims Eden had no friends despite appearing sociable at the gallery.
Harrison explains the move was intended as a fresh start, saying Eden married young and devoted herself to raising Gabriella, who was homeschooled. He maintains Eden was the happiest she had been in years, rejecting implications of distress or suicide.
When Carter inquires about his work, Harrison initially refuses, arguing it’s irrelevant. Pressed for the company name, he reluctantly discloses he is the CEO of a London pharmaceutical and tech firm called Thanatos, framing it as the job that funded Eden’s preferred life.
The exchange underscores Harrison’s protectiveness and guardedness, provides concrete details about Gabriella and Eden’s isolation, and introduces Harrison’s significant corporate role as a potential investigative lead.
