The first part of my plan is to gather information. At this point, I have so little to work with that a single path - or even multiple paths - are impossible to pin down. There are always tens of options that might conceivably work, but now there are thousands. Hence a desire to get any information available.

You could, of course, always lie, and if you're the woman I know here, you will. And then you'll kill me. And the death toll isn't working, which means it might be permanent.
