The term, "Job to do". infers that money is involved.
I am more at ease with Brueckner abducting Madeleine for money than I am with Brueckner killing Madeleine.
Me too, Elli.
If he is involved then I think it was only for a paid abduction, then possibly driving her across PT and Spain to try and meet up with interested parties and finally behanded over to The Victoria Beckham look alike. There is a trail of interesting sighting places (with certain connections that I have noticed) across middle/northern Portugal towards Barcelona. There is another interesting sighting on the Spanish coast south of Barcelona. This also appears to have similar certain connections.
I think that immediately prior to the abduction, CB also said that he would be away for a time. Do you remember that Elli? Anyone ? If that is misremembered, please correct me. This hypothesis must be based only on the truth (the real truth as we know it)
I have not researched this in the depth that I normally do and would be grateful for any considered help or constructive criticism. Gunit, you are good at that. Anything that you can add?
