Hunter: “Isabella? Detective Hunter. I’m asking everyone who was at the apple festival last night. Did you see anything unusual?” Isabella: “Mi dispiace… non capisco. Parla più piano, per favore.” [Sorry… I don’t understand. Please speak more slowly.] Hunter: “You don’t speak English.” Isabella: “No. Italiano.” [No. Italian.] Hunter: “Right. I don’t speak Italian.” [He looks from her troubled face to the camera in her hands.] “Can you show me?” Isabella: “Aspetti. Forse… il telefono.” [Wait. Maybe… the phone.] Hunter: “A translation app. Good.” Isabella: “Ero vicino al frutteto, dopo il tramonto. Ho fotografato le lanterne.” [I was near the orchard after sunset. I photographed the lanterns.] Hunter: “The orchard by the festival grounds?” Isabella: “Sì. Ho sentito qualcuno gridare. Poi ho visto una donna entrare tra gli alberi.” [Yes. I heard someone scream. Then I saw a woman go in among the trees.] Hunter: “Did you recognize her?” Isabella: “No. Ma sembrava spaventata. Continuava a guardarsi alle spalle.” [No. But she looked frightened. She kept looking over her shoulder.] Hunter: “Did anyone follow her?” Isabella: “Un uomo con un cappotto scuro. Non l’ho visto bene.” [A man in a dark coat. I didn’t see him clearly.] Hunter: “And then?” Isabella: “Ho scattato una foto. Quando ho guardato di nuovo, non c’erano più.” [I took a picture. When I looked again, they were both gone.] Hunter: “Gone where?” Isabella: “Non lo so! Ho cercato tra gli alberi. Non c’era nessuno.” [I don’t know! I looked among the trees. There was nobody there.] Hunter: “Show me the photograph.” Isabella: “Ecco.” [Here.] “Guardi, detective. Qui c’è una luce… ma io non l’ho vista quando ho scattato.” [Look, detective. There’s a light here… but I didn’t see it when I took the picture.] Hunter: “That could be a reflection.” Isabella: “Forse. Ma guardi la finestra della vecchia rimessa. C’è qualcuno dentro.” [Maybe. But look at the window of the old shed. There’s someone inside.] Hunter: “The shed by the orchard?” Isabella: “Sì. E questa foto è stata scattata prima che la donna entrasse tra gli alberi.” [Yes. And this photo was taken before the woman went in among the trees.] Hunter: “Can you send me the original file? Don’t edit it or delete anything.” Isabella: “Sì. Certo.” [Yes. Of course.] Hunter: “I need your name, your number, and where you’re staying. We’ll get someone to help translate your statement.” Isabella: “Mi chiamo Isabella. Sono qui per il programma di studio. La mia pensione è vicino alla piazza.” [My name is Isabella. I’m here for the study-abroad program. My guesthouse is near the square.] Hunter: “All right. Stay somewhere public tonight, and don’t go back to that orchard.” Isabella: “Detective…” [She taps the screen, then points at the photograph.] “La luce si è spostata.” [The light moved.] Hunter: “What?” Isabella: “Prima era alla finestra. Adesso è dietro di noi.” [Before, it was at the window. Now it’s behind us.] Hunter: “Stay here.” Hunter: “I have to take this.” [His phone rings. He answers.] “Hunter.” Isabella: “Detective, aspetti—” [Detective, wait—] Hunter: “I’m on my way. Don’t touch anything.” [He ends the call and looks at her.] “I have to go. Keep the camera with you. I’ll be back.” Isabella: “Per favore, faccia attenzione.” [Please be careful.] Hunter: “I don’t know what that means. But I will.”
