 He wasn't happy about the whole thing, but at least he now knew as much about the case as I did. Which wasn't much for either of us to know. So Burton figured the girl gave him the double cross, huh? Yeah, I guess that's it. He wanted me to find her, just so he could turn her in when he gives himself up. Maybe and maybe not. Maybe he found her before you did. Maybe he's the one who put those knife wounds in her back. I doubt it, Walt. If he'd had any idea where she was, he wouldn't have bothered to hire me. Then why was she killed? Well, she must have known where $50,000 worth of jewelry was.
