Chapter 18 - The Vault in Manhattan

Two hours later, a private helicopter carried Arthur, Toby, and Security Chief Richard to downtown Manhattan.

They walked into the heavy marble lobby of the main Bank of America branch on Wall Street, escorted by the bank manager.

Inside the climate-controlled vault, the manager inserted a master key alongside the brass key from Lily's locket.

Safety deposit box 408 slid open with a heavy metallic click, exposing a thick leather journal and a USB drive.

Arthur opened the journal, recognizing the neat, elegant handwriting of David’s late wife, Sarah.

"If anything happens to David and me, this drive contains the original audio recordings of Marcus Vance," the first page read.

Arthur plugged the USB drive into a tablet, playing the first encrypted audio file through high-definition headphones.

Marcus’s voice filled the vault: "If you ever tell Arthur about the Panama accounts, David, I will ruin your entire family."
