Chapter 31: The Letter
I didn't open it in the library.
I couldn't, with the banker's pen lined up on his pad and the car dealer looking politely at the ceiling.
"Excuse me," I said.
I went out of the library and up the front stairs, and down the hall to the study at the end.
I shut the door behind me.
The room still smelled like him.
The moon wasn't in the window this time.
Just a flat white December sky over the orchard, and the stone hump of the ice house at the bottom of it.
I sat down in his chair.
I'd never sat in it.
Not once, in twenty-seven years.
It was too big for me, and it creaked exactly where I knew it would.
I put my thumb under the flap.
There was no lamp to click on now.
Nobody in the doorway.
The paper inside was his good cream stationery, two sheets, folded in three.
Green ink, both sides.
