One hour and multiple screaming fits did nothing to calm Chloe before the cavalry – in the form of Chief Terry – arrived.“Tell me again what happened,” Chief Terry instructed, pinching the bridge of his nose.After fruitlessly trying to convince Chloe that I wasn’t trying to murder her – and offering her a ride back to town, which she promptly turned into a purported death threat – Patty Jamison arrived thanks to a call from her outraged daughter. She in turn called Chief Terry to haul me in for attempted murder.It wasn’t going well.“I want her arrested,” Patty screeched, pointing at me. “She tried to kill my daughter.”“I didn’t,” I argued. “I didn’t touch her.”“How did I get into the creek then?” Chloe asked, gesturing wildly at the water. “I was standing on the shore looking at the place where my brother’s body was dumped. The next thing I knew I was flying through the air and landing in the water. That didn’t just magically happen.”Technically, that wasn’t true.
