Chapter 18: Camryn's Last Cast-off
"I don't want your gifts anymore," I said.
"It's not a gift," Camryn said. "It's yours already."
Benedict shifted at my shoulder, and I touched his sleeve without looking.
"Give us the front room," I told him. "Five minutes."
"I'll be in the hall."
He went, and left the door open an inch.
Camryn put the folder on the desk where I had once found the fuel line mistake.
Her fingers left damp marks on the manila.
"Open it," she said.
I opened it.
The first page was a letterhead from the Foxcroft Honor Committee.
It named Camryn Ellingwood, and a paper titled Debt and Charity in Closed Markets.
Under it was a finding in plain type.
Responsible for substantial reproduction of a prior student work.
"I know what it says," I said. "Benedict showed me."
"Turn the page."
I turned it.
The next sheet was a photocopy of a student essay from Halden University, dated freshman fall.
Debt and Charity.
At the top of the page was a name in blue pen.
Susannah Trowbridge.
I stared at it for a long time.
"I wrote this for my first-year seminar," I said slowly. "You asked to read it."
