Overview
Sergeant Luke Carter interviews Harrison Woolf about Eden’s disappearance. Harrison presents Eden’s rings and learns her car was found abandoned near Blackmoor. Carter probes suicide, affairs, finances, and Harrison’s daughter Gabriella—echoing the impostor’s claim—raising suspicion. Pressed on life insurance and money, Harrison ends the interview and requests a solicitor.
Summary
At Hope Falls police station, Sergeant Luke Carter interviews Harrison Woolf, who insists he needs to know what happened to his wife, Eden. Harrison produces Eden’s wedding and engagement rings, explaining she leaves them behind when running. Carter informs him Eden’s car was found abandoned a mile from Hope Falls in Blackmoor National Park.
Carter tests theories of Eden’s state of mind, asking about affairs and the possibility she left voluntarily. Harrison rejects suicide implications and grows agitated that officers are not actively finding Eden, while Carter notes the coastguard search and the potential delay in recovering a body due to tides.
Turning to personal connections, Carter asks about children. Harrison confirms an eighteen-year-old daughter, Gabriella. Carter notes the impostor who claimed to be Eden also said she had a daughter named Gabriella, a detail that unsettles the narrative. Harrison dismisses it as part of the impostor’s delusions.
Carter shifts to motive lines: grudges, a London flat, and the expense of two properties. He asks about life insurance, implicitly suggesting financial incentive. Feeling cornered, Harrison terminates the voluntary interview and says further contact must go through his solicitor.
