Chapter 9 Summariser Sara didn't think the man looked like a policeman when he arrived. He had come from Sydney and didn't live nearby. He introduced himself as Bob Munn and Sara and her Dad's hands. Bob asked Sara's father some questions first for about one hour and knocked on Sara's door when the policeman was ready to talk with her. Bob asked questiona about Reenie's personality and whether she visited often. After a few more questions, Bob told Sara that Reenie's boyfriend, Johnnie had broken up with Reenie. Sara couldn't believe it and wondered why he had broken up their relationship. Finally, the policeman asked her one last question and it was how long since Sara had seen Reenie.

Chapter 10 Summariser This chapter is a small flashback on the last time Sara had seen Reenie. It was a Monday night when Sara always visited her Mum to have dinner. Reenie had just arrived when Sara had finished eating and gave her a small kiss on the cheek. She gossipped with her Mum and then Sara's Dad arrived. Sara quickly left before she would have to tolerate another sisterly kiss. She still received one from her Mum though. Reenie said goodbye but that was the last time Sara had seen her sister.
