Jack thought for a moment. Headaches? At her age? "You say she was on
medication? Have you checked to see if they have taken it with them at all?

she returned shaking her head. "It's still here." Tha alarm was very clear

hated spreading gossip, but this was a priest after all and it was how she
felt.
