The Registration Check
A routine traffic stop becomes Karl's first real breakthrough. The vehicle registration comes back to someone who shouldn't be lending out their car. The driver has explanations—and keys to prove them. But as Karl follows her through two roadside encounters and examines her phone, connections emerge that tie this case to his past. And a recent call suggests someone's been warned they're coming.
July 29, 2018. Glenorchy.
Karl and Sarah have been chasing shadows. Missing persons. No leads. Just instinct saying something's wrong.
Then a car screeches out of a bottle shop car park. Standard traffic stop. Breath test. Registration check.
The name that comes back changes everything.
Karl follows the driver through two encounters. Watches her text whilst driving. Examines her phone. Discovers connections he wasn't expecting.
Experience Karl's perspective across three critical moments. The registration that cracks the case open. The second stop that reveals deception. The phone examination that connects past to present.
This is Karl's hunt. His instincts. His realisation they might be walking into something planned.
