Chapter 5

 

The killer grabbed the morning newspaper from the end of the driveway and glanced at the front page, heart pounding as they skimmed the headlines.  It didn’t take long to find the story that inevitably made the front page of the local paper.

Body of man found in Belhaven woods has been positively identified.”  There was a small profile picture of Daniel Malone directly above the article.

“Montbay County Sheriff’s Department has positively identified the body of a man found stabbed to death behind the elementary school in nearby Belhaven. 

Forty year-old local businessman, Daniel Malone, from Green Springs, Michigan was found stabbed to death in the woods behind the Belhaven Elementary School.  Police believe he was killed prior to his body being dumped in the woods.  At this time, no suspects have been named. 

If you have any information on Mr. Malone’s whereabouts the night of Friday, September 26th, please contact the Montbay County Sheriff Department.”

A grim smile spread across the killer’s pursed lips.  And the Montbay County Sheriff’s Department will never have a suspect in the murder of one Daniel Malone. 

The killer frowned as a thought popped into their mind.  A loose end that needed to be taken care of as soon as possible.  It was time to take a quick trip to the scene of the crime.
