"This ex of yours," McKenzie said, pushing off the wall and taking a step closer. "Word is she was seventeen."
"She was a month away from turning eighteen when I met her. And she lied about her age too."
Callie nodded slowly and leaned back in her seat. "So. What can you tell us about Fiona Spence?”
"I told you. She was a no-show."
"What kind of photos did she want?" McKenzie asked. "Headshots, or..." He gestured toward the erotic shots on the table.
"No idea. Because she never showed up."
"So it's your policy to talk over what they want when they arrive? Not before?"
"At times."
“And you have never photographed her before?”
“Nope.”
"So if we go through the rest of your files, we aren't going to find Fiona Spence? Kara Ellison? Brooke Danvers?"
"Nope."
"You always shoot at your place?" Callie asked.
"Not always. We live in a scenic part of the country. Depends on the client."
Garrett straightened in his chair and put both hands flat on the table. "Look, aren't I meant to get a phone call or something? A lawyer, maybe?"
In the observation room, Noah turned to Ray. "He's the strongest lead we have so far. Fiona Spence was on her way to see him. He has a record."
"I don't think he's our guy," Ray said. His eyes stayed on the glass. "Our officers are still going through his place, but sofar no weapons. No knives that match the kind used on Brooke Danvers."
"Doesn't mean he didn't dump the weapon. Until they go through every one of those photos, we won't know if he's connected to the six bodies."
"And Fiona Spence? Did you talk to her parents?"
"Parent. She lives with her father. Says she goes where she wants. Figured she was with Ethan,” Noah replied.
"Ethan?"
"Ethan was dating Fiona."
Ray turned from the glass and studied him. "Does he know?"
"He will."
"You haven't told him yet?"
"Until she shows up, there's a possibility she's just out there. Right?"
They turned their attention back to the glass just in time to hear Finch say he wasn't answering any more questions until a lawyer was present. McKenzie stepped forward and Callie gathered the photographs.
"Well," Noah said. "We can at least charge him with the underage material."
"No." Ray's voice was quiet but final. "Brooke Danvers went missing for two weeks before she showed up dead. Which means whoever was doing this was keeping them alive. So if Finch is behind Fiona's disappearance, she is probably still alive. We charge him and he closes up. He won't say a word. But if we cut him loose, he may lead us directly to her. Or at least to wherever he's been keeping them."
"And if he disappears?"
