In the book, Katie starts telling Alex about her past, she talks about her several escape attempts, as well as her final escape to Southport. Which includes, getting her hair done at a beauty shop, going next door and buying a cell phone & tricking Kevin while he's out of town on a case, leaving and first going to Philadelphia, where Kevin almost finds her, then New York, before getting a ride into South Port with a guy driving a truck. |
She flees, and gets off the bus in Southport, right from the start... |
|
Alex teaches Katie to drive, and when she gets her licenses, is how Kevin finds her after he breaks into the Feldman's home and got the information he needed when he puts the story together when he hears of the Feldman's daughter who died, and Erin looked like Katie... |
Driving never comes up, and he just breaks into the Feldman's home after seeing a recipe that is a match to the Feldman's handwriting, listens to a message, and writes down the number and he calls it to find out where she's at & where she works...

Katie & Jo lives in 2 similar looking cottages, and seem to be close together. |
We never see Jo's cottage. |
