A.N.: First of all: sorry for the extra long wait, but I had some very busy weeks last month.I
know this one is pretty short, but the next chapter is already translated and will be
longer, I promise. Please RR none the less!

Chapter 11:

When they came back from Vermont, Jack first ordered the examination of the documents the nurse had given to them so unwillingly. He had given them to Martin, who brought them to a forensic analysis.

Jack saw, by the expression on Martins face, that this delivery job didn't please him at all. But he didn't complain and Jack didn't take any further notice of it. Martin had gone too far with his outbreak about their work, in this case not being much of a use. And as he hadn't been willing to consider their investigation an official case, Jack treated him exactly like this. He knew it wasn't the smartest thing to do. He could use Martin's abilities way better than this on other things they had to do. But this wasn't about someone he didn't know, it was about Danny – somebody, as he said, he knew for long and whom he knew well. Therefore he didn't react that objective to any kind of criticism from others concerning his own behaviour and his way of working in this case. He reacted emotional and Martin had to get along with that now.

Apart from the examination, Jack had ordered to check the nurse's testemony and had asked Vivian to call the institution Andrea had been transfered to, to ask if she in fact ever got there. He was pretty sure the nurse had lied to them. He didn't know how far and first of all he didn't know what consequences emerged from it, but she ceratinly had lied.

She'd been nervous and hectic, almost afraid. He just asked himself if she'd lied to protect Andrea or to protect someone else. The thought of her lying to cover up Andrea's disappearance, because she was in league with Brooks and he was responsible for it, made him sick. He didn't even wanna think about how Andrea felt, what she had to go through, when she had fallen into his hands, but the possibilty was present.

It would explain Danny's disappearance and it would fit the content of the conversation between him and Erika.

"Jack?"

He turned around to Vivian, who had just addressed him.

"We've checked the documents about Andrea's transfer to that other clinic. She never got there. The documents are a forging, Jack."

His suspision had been aproved. The question emerging was, if it meant something good or something bad.
