Before she could respond, Sutton’s cell phone starting ringing on the floor a few feet away. He turned to look at it, frowning at the screen. “It’s my brother, Miles.”
“Hey Miles. What’s going on?”
Lauren sat the edging brush down in the paint tray and walked over to where he was standing. She couldn’t hear the conversation on the line, but she could tell by the suddenly serious expression on his face that it was important.

“What do you think it’s about?”
Sutton shook his head. “I don’t know for sure, but judging by the sound of his voice, he may have found the piece of information we’ve been looking for.”
“What piece of information?”
Sutton sighed and rubbed his face thoughtfully. “If we’re lucky...maybe the evidence we need to prove to the world that the Wingates were set up. And by whom.”
