Chapter 11 - Victoria Attempts To Escape Through The Rear Patio Doors

Realizing the legal trap was closing in around her, Victoria suddenly turned on her heel and bolted down the long hallway.
She sprinted toward the rear kitchen doors that led out onto the illuminated stone patio and the backyard garden beyond.
“Stop right there! Police, do not move an inch!” Officer Miller shouted, sprinting in hot pursuit down the marbled corridor.
Private estate security guards stationed outside the rear perimeter intercepted her path instantly, blocking the sliding glass patio doors.
