Meeting with Deck. Philadelphia.

A few days later⁠—

Deck update on Aubrey.

A week after that⁠—

Call Anne. No answer.

Burke frowned.

He turned another page.

Meeting with Eleanor. Discuss options.

Called Anne. Refused to speak with me.

Deck investigating housing options if Aubrey visits.

Visits?

Burke sat up a little straighter.

Another page.

Called Anne again. Still refuses.

Two days later⁠—

Tea with Patsy.

Lunch with Eleanor.

Will revision.

His brow furrowed.

Will revision?

Months before her death?

He flipped ahead.

The pattern became impossible to ignore.

Updates from Deck.

Calls to Anne.

Meetings with Eleanor.

And one name that kept resurfacing.

Patsy.

Tea with Patsy.

Church luncheon with Patsy.
