Eliminating 'getting lost' from the equation, she narrowed her mental search to three possibilities: Injury, foul play or none-of-the-above. The injury file had sub-files that included fights with bears, broken bones, avalanches and myocardial infarction.

The last possibility, the one most likely, was of course, the none-of-the-above file, which contained a warning in 60 point bolded helvetica:

Closing the folder with care she poured herself a cup of coffee.
Fucking bears.
