Chapter 19 - THE MYSTERIOUS DOCUMENT

Three weeks later, an unmarked courier delivered a thick, wax-sealed brown envelope to Sierra’s private office at the foundation.
Sierra broke the wax seal, pulling out a series of police reports and mechanical inspection logs dated four years prior.
The documents pertained to the fatal highway crash that had taken the life of her late husband, Thomas Vance.
Attached to the official police reports was a handwritten note written in bold, aggressive black ink:
Thomas didn't die because of bad weather; his steering column was intentionally severed inside your father's private garage.
Sierra felt her breath catch in her throat, her heart pounding frantically against her ribs as she reread the terrifying words.
She picked up her phone, dialing her father’s private number with shaking fingers as tears welled in her eyes.

"Dad... tell me the truth about the night Thomas died," Sierra whispered into the phone, her voice cracking with sudden dread.
On the other end of the line, William Vance remained silent for five agonizing seconds before letting out a heavy, sorrowful sigh.
