The Quarry Girls: A Thriller

The ambulance driver takes Heather back home. When her dad arrives a few hours later, she finds herself comforting him over Brenda’s death. He tells Heather that though they can’t find Ed, Jerome took Ant and Ricky in for questioning. When she asks him why Brenda wasn’t wearing her own clothes, Gary tells her she might not have known her friends as well as she thought. Heather gets angry, but she quells it for now. She tells her dad she’s going for a walk and goes into the tunnels to see if she can hear anything through Ant’s basement door. She doesn’t, so she returns home.

When she arrives back at her house, she catches Junie in her room, pulling out the bottle of Anacin stuffed with Mrs. Hansen’s heart medication that she stole. Junie tells her she has a headache. Heather gets her some aspirin and tells her she’s going to visit their mother at the hospital. She hides the bottle of Anacin, Maureen’s journal, and the Polaroids she found at Sheriff Nillson’s under a loose floorboard.

Heather takes Junie to Claude’s, and while she’s there, he gives her a copper necklace, one he thought she was looking at when she was investigating the jewelry counter at Zayre’s.
