He met his landlady briefly, but within a very few hours after taking possession of the residence, he became deeply disturbed as to her whereabouts. The newspapers were carrying accounts of the disappearance of a young girl, and when, a day or two later, another girl vanished, Thorne realized that perhaps Hannah might also have disappeared into the blue. Murder found the first girl, and more and more he felt that Hannah was in danger. Thorne began to investigate, was successful in finding the second girl - but too late to help her - and under particularly macabre circumstances got to Hannah just in time..
