The Ghost At the Point (2014)
“Dorrie was afraid that Sarah would come and check behind the tank – it had been one of their favourite hiding places when they were little. At one point she heard her friend coming in their direction, but then Sarah got distracted by her father calling out to her from down near the chook house.
And of course they searched every room in the house, checking behind the curtains and under the beds.
Dorrie heard Sarah going into the bathroom. She called out in surprise. “Seems like Dorrie’s just had... a bath. She hasn’t emptied it … and there’s still water on the floor. Why would she have a bath at this time of day?”
Neither of her parents had an answer to that.
Uncle Harold and Aunt Janet came back from the end of the point and reported that she didn’t seem to be on either of the beaches or out fishing. Mrs Jennings reminded them that Dorrie wouldn’t have been able to haul the dinghy down on her own anyway.
Dorrie smiled to herself. Little did they know.
“She’s got enough food in the cupboard to keep her going for a few days,”MoreLess
