They would be able to determine through a field investigation whether Wendy's body had drifted here on the water current, or if it had simply been dumped here.
The direction of the follow-up investigation would depend on whether the body had been dumped on the beach before it was swallowed by the tide, or had been dumped directly into the ocean from a boat.
Luke and Selina went over to the yellow cordon, which was where the body had been retrieved.
Taking out the file photo of the crime scene, Luke looked at the ocean and said, "The water current comes from there." He pointed in one direction.
They walked several hundred meters along the beach and climbed a slope, only to be rendered speechless by what they saw.
Hundreds of meters away on the other side of the slope was a row of villas along the shoreline.
Selina checked the map and said, "It's a villa district. Dozens of families live here."
