Chapter 12 - Discovering The Letters Jessica Tried To Burn Down

Mark reached into the lockbox, pulling out the topmost envelope bearing a postmark from Maine six years ago.
He slid out the folded sheet of stationery, recognizing Sarah’s handwriting instantly across the page.
“Mark, if you are reading this letter, it means Jessica finally succeeded in framing me for abandonment.”
“She has been stealing funds from your business accounts and blaming them on my family.”
“If anything happens to me, check the offshore accounts registered under her maiden name.”
Mark’s hands shook uncontrollably as he read the heartbreaking words written by his first wife before she vanished.
He pulled out a second document—a forged medical death certificate stating Sarah had died in a car crash.
A certificate that had been notarized by a corrupt municipal judge on Jessica’s payroll.

“She didn't run away,” Mark whispered, tears blurring his vision as the terrifying puzzle completed itself.
