Template:5th December



5th December 1991: It is night and Sarah tries to escape as Jim Latimer sleeps. Unfortunately he wakes up and stops her. Jim unties Sarah so that she can go to the toilet, but insists that he go with her. She tries to appeal to him to let her go and he speaks for the first time. She encourages him to talk about his childhood. He admits that he once carved 'JL loves SC' on a tree - the SC standing for Sharon Crossthwaite - the woman he murdered. Sarah does not know this and tells him that her initials are the same. She presumes that it is an old girlfriend. He is just opening up to her when they hear a shotgun and he panics. He becomes violent towards Sarah as she tries to explain that it is just the local shoot. He ties her up again and drives off. Sarah makes her escape in the van, but crashes it and Jim captures her. He hides her in a disused barn and tells her that she is just like Sharon as she couldn't be trusted. Sarah realises that Jim murdered Sharon and she starts to cry.
