Chapter 72

The woman's name was Maya Harris and she sat across from Detective Floyd with her hands folded on top of a manila envelope like she was holding it down. Like she was afraid it would open on its own if she let go.Floyd had asked Grace and Aiden to come in. Not over the phone. In person, she had said, which meant it was the kind of thing that needed to be said while you could see someone's face.Grace sat beside Aiden in the small conference room at the precinct. Maya had not looked at them yet. She kept her eyes on the table."Take your time," Floyd said to her. Quietly. The way she spoke to people who had been carrying something for too long.Maya pressed her lips together. Then she said: "My sister's name was Kelly. Kelly Harris." She stopped. Steadied herself. "She died three years ago. They called it a suicide."The room was very still."And you don't believe it was," Floyd said."I know it wasn't." Maya's voice was flat. Not angry. The kind of flat that comes after years of not b

Chapter 73

They arrested Mason at the airport on a Tuesday.He had a fake passport. The name on it was Daniel Reeves. The photograph was his but the hair was different, darker, and he had grown a beard that changed his face just enough to matter at a glance. It would not have mattered to the two FBI agents waiting at the gate who had been watching his face on a screen for the past three hours.Grace heard about it from Floyd at seven in the morning. She was already awake. She had been awake since five."He's in custody," Floyd said. "Charged with attempted murder, distribution of illegal footage, and fraud. His father posted bail within the hour.""How much?""Ten million."Grace was quiet for a moment. "Of course he did.""He'll have an ankle monitor. Movement restricted to the city. He cannot contact you, Aiden, Lily, Emma, Rachel, or Floyd directly." A pause. "That's the restraining order. It's active as of this morning.""Good," Grace said. And then, because she had learned to say the real t

Chapter 74

They came before sunrise.Four FBI technicians with equipment cases and a quietness about them that felt practiced. They moved through the penthouse methodically, floor to ceiling, socket plates to window frames, without explaining what they were looking for until they found it.Grace stood in the kitchen doorway with a coffee she did not drink and watched them work.Aiden stood beside her. At some point his hand had come to rest at the small of her back and she had not moved away from it.Agent Torres was the last one through the door. He was in his mid-forties, the kind of man whose face gave very little away, and he set his own laptop on the kitchen table without asking permission in the way that people do when they have already decided the space belongs to the investigation."We need to talk about the photograph," he said."I know," Grace said."It wasn't taken from the street."She had suspected that. The angle was too high, the focus too clean. Street level would have given her

Torres talked for forty minutes without stopping.Grace listened the way she had trained herself to listen over the past weeks. Not waiting for the part that would upset her. Just taking it in, all of it, building the picture as it came.The Volkov Network, Torres explained, was not the kind of organisation that announced itself. It did not need to. It had been operating across eleven countries for the better part of two decades, moving money through legitimate businesses the way water moves through soil, quietly and completely, leaving almost nothing on the surface to show where it had gone.Luxury real estate. Private aviation. Hospitality. And fashion.Grace's hands were still on the table."Fashion supply chains," Torres said, "are ideal for this kind of operation. High volume, international movement, complex logistics, multiple intermediary companies between production and retail. You can move a significant amount of money alongside a legitimate shipment and if the paperwork is c

Torres left the folder on the table when he went.Grace did not touch it again. She had already read every page twice and the information was inside her now, organised and filed, doing the quiet work that evidence did when you gave it time. She did not need to look at it again to know what it said.What she needed was to look at Aiden.He was standing at the far end of the room with his back to her, both hands braced on the windowsill, looking out at the city the same way she had been looking at it an hour ago. She had been using it to think. She did not know what he was using it for.She gave him time.She made tea she did not particularly want and stood in the kitchen and let the silence be what it needed to be. That was something she had learned about Aiden in the weeks they had been living in close quarters with each other's grief. He did not always need words first. Sometimes he needed the space to get there himself.After a while he turned around.He looked different. Not broken

Grace did not put the call on speaker.She listened. She kept her face as neutral as she could manage and she listened to every word Sophia said, and when Sophia was finished she thanked her and ended the call and set the phone down on the table face-up.Aiden was watching her."What did she say?" he asked.Grace looked at him carefully. She was not afraid of what Sophia had told her. She had learned, over these past weeks, to separate fear from information. Information was useful. Fear was only useful if it made you move.What she felt right now was something quieter than fear. Something more like the feeling you got when you stepped on a floorboard you had crossed a hundred times and heard it give a sound it had never given before."She said Mason had something on you," Grace said. "Something from before I knew you. A sealed record."The kitchen was very quiet.Outside, the city moved. In here, nothing moved at all."She said she overheard Mason tell someone he was keeping it as lev

The silence lasted long enough that Grace almost asked the question again.Then Aiden said: "Yes."Just the one word. Quietly, without looking away from her, like a man who had spent years carrying the weight of something and was finally setting it down on a surface he trusted."It was Sophia," he said.Grace absorbed this. She kept her hands still in her lap and let the information settle properly before she reached for the next question."Tell me the rest," she said.Aiden leaned back in his chair. He looked at the ceiling for a moment — not avoiding her, just finding the right place to start."I didn't know her," he said. "Before that night. I'd seen her once or twice at the kind of events where you see everyone without actually knowing anyone. She wasn't part of my circle. She was part of Mason's, the way a lot of people were at that point — young, ambitious, trying to get close to the right people." He paused. "She was twenty-four. I was twenty-two. The man who cornered her was f

Chapter 79

Grace called Lily before she did anything else.Three rings. Four. Her chest was doing something tight and mechanical and she breathed through it and waited.Lily answered on the fifth ring, sleep-thick and slightly irritated. "Grace? It's nearly midnight.""I know. Are you in your room?"A pause. The sound of Lily sitting up. She had always been quick to read Grace's voice, even half asleep. "Yes. Why? What's wrong?""Lock your door," Grace said. "Right now. Don't open it for anyone you don't know. I'll explain everything in the morning but I need you to do that first."The sound of movement. A lock clicking."Done," Lily said. Her voice was fully awake now, the irritation gone. "Grace. What happened?""Someone sent a message," Grace said. "It's a threat. It may be nothing — it may just be Mason trying to rattle us — but I'm not taking the risk." She paused. "I love you. Keep the door locked. I'll call Floyd."She hung up before Lily could argue. Then she called Floyd.Floyd had a ca

Chapter 80

Grace had been afraid before.She had been afraid in the cabin when Mason blocked the door. She had been afraid under the ice of the frozen lake with the cold pressing into her from every direction and the light above her going thin and distant. She had been afraid in the hospital when she woke up and could not remember how many days had passed.But this was different.This was Lily.She did not cry. She did not shake. What happened instead was that everything inside her went very cold and very organised, the way a room looks when someone has cleared it out completely and all that remains is the structure underneath. The walls. The floor. The shape of the thing without anything soft left in it.She was already moving before Aiden had finished reading Floyd's text over her shoulder."Car," she said."I'll drive," Aiden said. He did not argue. He did not ask if she was all right. He grabbed his keys and his jacket and he was at the door before she was, which was exactly what she needed

Chapter 81

Lily was sitting on a plastic chair inside the rest stop when they arrived, a paper cup of hot chocolate held in both hands, a female officer beside her who had driven out ahead of them. She stood up the moment Grace came through the door and Grace crossed the room and held her without saying anything at first.Lily was shaking. Not violently. The small, deep trembling of someone whose body was releasing something it had been holding for hours."I'm all right," Lily said into Grace's shoulder. "I'm not hurt. He didn't touch me. He just drove me here and stopped and told me to get out and drive away.""He said nothing else?""He said: tell your sister to stop." Lily pulled back and looked at Grace. Her eyes were red but her voice was steady. She was angry, Grace realised. Underneath the shaking she was furious, and that was the best thing she could have been. "That was it. That was the whole message."Grace looked at her for a long moment. Taking stock. Making sure.Then she said: "You
