He’d spent hours constructing elaborate daydreams about visiting her at the place. Although that was before Jenna was attacked and left school. Before he dropped out and moved to California. He hadn’t been back to South Dakota since. Until now.
According to Coop’s plan that he’d laid out at the town meeting the night before, Shane was supposed to be “mingling with the locals.”
“Starting, perhaps, with the redhead that made the usually glib and suave Shane Reynard turn into a stammering school boy,” his friend had added, poking Shane with his bony elbow before hopping out the car.
Coop had even provided a crudely sketched map to find The Mystery Spot.
“I heard all about the Mystery Spot from Jenna’s mother, Bess, when I was here before,” Coop had told him. “Apparently, Jenna’s dad was some kind of eccentric college professor with a passion for optical illusions, although everyone pretends the exhibits are part of some scientific anomaly. I didn’t actually set foot inside, but it sounds like a hoot.”
Shane picked up the oversize sticky note that was attached to the passenger seat and studied the purple felt tip marker scribbles. The funny jittery just under his rib cage started again. Too much caffeine, he figured.
Or was it from knowing he was about to reconnect with Jenna?
“I know you said she didn’t remember you from college,” Coop had said before turning in last night, “but I bet she would if you introduced yourself using your family name. That might jog her memory.”
Shane didn’t doubt that for a minute. After all, it was the name of the man who raped her.
