Chapter 7 - THE SECOND NAME

Inside the archive they discovered a ledger filled with payments.

Judges.

Doctors.

Executives.

Police officers.

And one name Chloe recognized immediately.

Dr. Marcus Vale.

The obstetrician who had delivered her baby.

Chloe felt sick.

The conspiracy had been inside the delivery room from the beginning.

Sarah found another document.

An authorization form allowing Marcus to remove Chloe’s child during a supposed neonatal emergency.

It carried Daniel’s electronic signature.

Chloe turned slowly toward him.

Daniel looked horrified.

“I never signed that.”

Sarah examined it.

“Then someone forged it.”

A noise came from upstairs.

Floorboards creaked.

They were no longer alone.
