Chapter 10 - The Abandoned EstateThe old house stood on a cliff above the ocean.
Wind slammed against broken windows.
Inside, Clara found evidence of a life hidden from the world.
Children's drawings.
Two identical dolls.
A photograph of twin babies.
And a journal.
The final entry was dated twenty-two years ago.
They want the inheritance. They will separate the girls.
Clara's hands trembled.
Then she heard footsteps.
Someone was inside.
She turned.
A figure rushed toward her.
Clara screamed.
But before the attacker could reach her, Alexander appeared.
They fought.
The stranger escaped through a rear door.
Alexander was bleeding.
"Why did you save me?"
He looked at Clara.
"Because I'm beginning to believe my family lied to me too."
He handed her the journal.
Inside was a final clue.
A location.
A hospital.

And a name.
Elena Sterling.
