Chapter 14: The Ledger
Alec had a dozen boxes lined against the safehouse wall, and I opened the first one with my own hands.
It was seven in the morning, and neither of us had slept.
Geoffrey had gone home to be seen at breakfast.
He had orders to call us the moment his father moved.
I sat on the floor with the lid of a box across my knees.
Alec stood at the window and did not sit.
"I'll read nothing aloud," he said. "You read it first."
"Why?"
"Because you said nobody lies to you, and I don't want to be the one who tells you what it says."
That was the best thing he had said in two days.
I started with the touring accounts, the paper copies of my father's spreadsheet.
They matched line for line, down to the forty thousand dollars a month.
Behind them were invoices from the shell company, stamped and paid.
Behind those were the maintenance logs for the Marlowe fly gallery.
