Later, when releasing Ruth on bail, Zailer tells her that she has been to see Aidan and has told him about Ruth and Jason, and that Aidan has told police that the woman Ruth saw him with is his stepsister, Mary Trelease. As the investigation continues, Ruth and Aidan question whether they really know each other and wonder what other secrets await discovery. | ||||||
