She'd booked a room for them at the Rosewood Inn, under a fake name, and as soon as they'd dropped off their things, they were heading to Mona's via a rental car.
"I managed to get in touch with my friend Caleb. He says Mona's mother hasn't been home in weeks. She's staying with her mother. There shouldn't be anyone home, and the police shouldn't be a problem," she said, her eyes on the road as she spoke.

"I don't want to touch it. Should we just take it all for now, and bag it when we get back the the hotel?"

"I hear someone," he said.

Silently she pulled hex towards the bathroom window, pulling the bin over so she could climb up. It wasn't huge, but she'd seen Jennifer Yates climb through it once, and that girl was built like a line backer with the metabolism of a sloth. She was certain she and Hex could slip through it without too much trouble.

But then he followed after, squeezing through the window to safety.

Her heart was pounding, but she didn't care. They finally had something to work with.

"We did it," he said. "We'll get to the bottom of this, yet."
