Chapter 18 - The Man in the Black CarThree months later, Tank received an envelope.

No return address.

Inside was a photograph.

Victor Hale.

Alive.

Standing somewhere overseas.

On the back of the photograph were six words:

You only buried the first secret.

Tank stared at it for a long time.

Then another photograph fell from the envelope.

It showed Lily's mother.

Alive.

Tank stopped breathing.

The photograph had been taken only two weeks earlier.

His entire world tilted.

He looked toward Lily's bedroom.

For the first time in months, fear returned.

Not fear for himself.

Fear for his daughter.

He burned the photographs.

But he kept one thing.

The envelope.

May you like

Because whoever had sent it wanted him to know something.

The story wasn't over.
