Thanks for the reviews. Rozzy07, Mariel3, Golddstranger, Irene, Tiantian Wang, and hope all you like the this chapter, and the next!
This will be my most important one to date. And the shortest. One last chapter after this .... Sorry for the delay, but I had to wait for to finish updating, again. But so far so good, haven't found anything to complain about yet, j/k.

Chapter 7: Suspects

38 Hours Missing/6 pm

Back at headquarters ...

Sam and Martin walked into the office. To their left Vivian was at her desk on the phone, and Agent Danny Taylor was just coming out of Jack's office. Martin and Sam both sat down at their desk.

"Hey you two! Anything yet?" asked Danny.

"Not much, just some possible leads." said Martin looking through a folder that had just been handed to him.

"Well, I checked Alicia's credit card statements, nothing strange there." said Danny.

"And her phone records are calls mostly from family and friends, nothing irregular," said Vivian as she hung up the phone, "Danny and I have talked to everyone in her address book, same story from all of them. Sweet girl, they have no idea where she is and they will do anything possible to help."

Jack walked out of his office and walked toward Sam, Vivian, Danny and Martin who were all together at Sam and Martin's desk.

"Martin, check to see if Nick LaQuin has ever taken acting class, and while you are at it pull his financial and phone records."

"Consider it done." said Martin, as he picked up his phone.

Looking at Sam, Jack asked, "You find out anything?"

"Talked to the mother and a uncle, no real help there. But we got her address book, Vivian has already called her friends. We talked with the great-grandmother, sweet lady, but no real leads."

"I went to the production set, learned she was dating the assistant director. Talked to him, seems genuinely worried, but I don't trust that when dealing with someone who might have taken acting lessons."

"Gee, I wonder why?" said Sam.

"And apparently Alicia had a stalker, Vivian is supposed to let me know if she turns up anything in her financial records and stuff."

"Yeah, I haven't turned up anything else. Except that doorman at the Hilton saw her get into a cab, about 10 am, which puts her at home, during the time Alicia went missing."

Martin hung up the phone, and stood up and walked over to where Jack and Sam where standing."Well, Nick took some classes, but flunked out in 2 weeks. But in an interesting turn of events, Sam, I found our mystery man, the one Alicia caught swindling old ladies."

"Who was it?"

"Well the great-grandmother was almost right, his name wasn't Steven, but Stanley."

"So where does that leave us?" asked Sam, almost seeing the light in Martin's eyes, the one he gets when he thinks he is about to break a case wide open.

"Well his name was Stanley Cross."

"Was?" asked Jack.

"He know goes by the name of Bentley Little." said Martin.

"Ok, let's get back out to the great grandmother's place, " said Sam. "Let's see what Mr. Bentley Little has to say for himself."

It had been well over 24 hours since Alicia disappeared, they were running out of time, and hope of finding her .... Alive!

One last chapter, it will be posted tomorrow!
