So, later, she wasn't too surprised when two women -- one small and red-haired and the other strong and brunette — walked into the station and asked to see her.
"It's about your daughter," the red-haired one said. "She's stronger now, isn't she?"
When Catherine looked up with surprise, the brunette smiled and gestured towards the door. "Shall we talk?"
