Chapter 3 - Six Missing Days
Jonah had entered Blackwood Mountain six days earlier.
At least according to his phone.
Mara found the device inside his coat.
The battery was nearly dead.
His last normal photograph showed him standing beside a rented Jeep at 8:14 Monday morning.
Behind him:
BLACKWOOD NATIONAL FOREST — NORTH ACCESS
The next file was recorded thirty-one hours later.
A video.
Jonah stood inside the same cabin.
Except he wasn’t alone.
Five people were behind him.
Mara paused the recording.
“Who are they?”
Jonah stared.
“I don’t know.”
“You were with them.”
“I don’t remember.”
She played the video.
Jonah looked into the camera.
“If somebody finds this, do not listen to the radio after midnight.”
Static filled the recording.
Then another voice said:
“Jonah.”
He turned.
Video ended.
Mara looked at him.
“You recorded that.”
“I know.”
“There are fifteen more files.”
Jonah swallowed.
