The mini-bus was missing from its parking spot alongside the house, and Carly
guessed that Ned Chute was out on a tour. Copter answered the door with Ben close

"Carly didn't bother to answer. She was busy unlocking the passenger-side door
of her car and wondering why Nancy didn't want to identify the person who had
taken parting threatening her husband and who had been caught trying to break into

After seating the boys, Carly walked to the rear of the car and opened the trunk. Then
