Solution

The correct option is B Indistinct
'Faint' means (of a sight, smell, or sound) barely perceptible.
"the faint murmur of voices"
In this sentence, "The detective looking for the lost woman heard a voice, but it was so faint that it was impossible to be sure what it was or even where it came from", 'faint' means indistinct. Hence, option D is correct and the other options are not because they do not provide the correct answer.
