What to do? What to do? I rubbed my temples with the tips of my fingers as I considered
my next move. I didn't think Wendy knew that Clay had been married before and that
his wife had mysteriously disappeared. She wasn't the kind to have given him the time
of day had she known he was a murder suspect.

Wendy was also not one to watch the news or read the paper, except on rare occasions.
She found the news depressing, she'd told me on numerous occasions. But being oblivious
to current events could have made Wendy vulnerable in this situation. Yes, I concluded,
it was entirely possible that, living in Massachusetts, she'd have no knowledge of
events happening in New York. Keeping up with the crimes taking place in New York
could become a full-time job. The more I thought about it, the more I was certain
that Wendy was completely unaware of Clay's past. The question was whether or not
it was my responsibility to make her aware of it. Didn't Clay, himself, owe it to
his new bride to fill her in on what most people would consider important events from
his past? If he were truly innocent, would he hide the details from her? It didn't
seem likely.

If I didn't warn my daughter and she became his next victim, could I live with that
on my conscience? If my intervention caused a rift in their marriage, and Clay turned
out to be completely innocent, could I live with that instead? But, I asked myself,
wasn't it something I had to risk to make sure no harm came to my child?

I gave it serious thought on my way over to Wendy and Clay's new home in Kansas City,
Kansas, just seven or eight blocks north of my own. I was hoping I'd come to the right
decision on the way and that Clay would not be home when I arrived.
