The Questions Mount
Sam and Mary put the suitcase’s contents to one side and returned to the darkroom. They walked around it slowly, their eyes scanning every corner carefully in search of answers. They needed to know exactly what had happened here, no matter how disturbing. Had people been held captive in here? Had terrible things been done to these prisoners? The old couple was desperate for answers. Just what had their home been used before their arrival?
Dismaying Letter
Mary eventually stumbled upon a note that described a terrifying experience. The writing was barely legible, having been scribbled out in a desperate rush by someone that was in a hysterical state. Sam and Mary could not really make out what this person was trying to communicate, but it was clear that they were desperate for rescue. It was now clear to the couple that this was the scene of a crime, and that the authorities needed to be called.
