Chapter 13: The Question
Blair smiled at the microphone.
"I'm your wife, darling," she said. "You know my voice better than anyone in this room."
"I know a voice," Anders said. "Tonight I'd like to know a fact."
He walked down two steps so that he stood level with the three of us and the first row of guests.
"A week ago Friday I held a silver wrench on a chain," he said.
"It hung from the neck of a woman who was busy, and I read the back of it."
"There are words cut into that metal in a stranger's handwriting."
"I have told no one what they say, including her."
"Mrs. Engdahl, whichever of you she is, tell the room what is engraved on the back of your mother's pendant."

Blair did not hesitate for even a second.
"Of course," she said, and laid a hand over her heart. "It says Always My Girl."
A soft, pleased sigh went through the room.
"It's very sentimental," Blair added. "Mother would have wanted it said in public."
