               Missing girls. Reports of missing
            girls from the Downtown Eastside.
            Dating back more than two years. The

            one with the oldest report has a face he
            vaguely recognizes. Anna Kerov, one
            of Becca’s friends from work. She was
            a cocktail server, like Becca. Reported
            missing in 2017.
               Why did his sister have these? Why
            was she collecting, and hiding, reports of
            missing girls? Jason’s heart is beating too
            fast. His hands are shaking again. Becca

            must have been mixed up in something
            bad. Why else would she have this stuff?
               Under the clippings there’s some-
            thing else. A flat white square. Not paper.
            Thicker. It is wedged into the corners
            of the box, and it takes a bit of effort to
            wiggle it free.

               It’s a Polaroid photo. A shot of a
            street. Two dark figures standing under
            a neon sign. Even with two letters blown
            out, Jason can see that it should say
