Chapter 11 - The Name in the FileThe digital drive contained one final folder.
A single name appeared on the screen.
COLE.
Tank looked at him.
Cole's face went pale.
But before anyone could speak, another file opened automatically.
Inside was a recording.
Lily's mother appeared on screen.
She looked tired.
Terrified.
But alive.
Tank stared at her.
“If you're watching this,” she said, “then I didn't make it.”
Tank's breath caught.
She looked directly into the camera.
“Tank, I need you to understand something.”
Her voice trembled.
“I never stopped loving you.”
Tank closed his eyes.
The recording continued.
“Victor isn't the real danger.”
She paused.
“The real danger is the man who helped him.”
A name appeared on the screen.
Tank stared at it.
His entire body went still.
