Chapter 18 - The Chase

Claire contacted the police.
They assured her they would protect her and her daughter.
But Victoria was elusive.
She was a ghost.
She was always one step ahead.

Claire stopped sleeping.
She stopped eating.
She lived in constant fear.
She couldn't trust anyone.

One afternoon, Grace was playing in the yard.
Claire looked away for just a moment.
When she looked back, Grace was gone.

She searched everywhere.
She called the police.
She called Daniel.
She called everyone.
But Grace was gone.
