Chapter 15 - My Mother's Secret My mother's name had been Grace Blake.
For years, I believed she worked as a bookkeeper.
She hadn't.
She had been Eleanor's financial auditor.
And twenty-two years earlier, she discovered the first fraudulent Sterling Trust transfers.
She tried to expose them.
Then she disappeared from the company.
Not fired.
Not resigned.
Disappeared.
The attorney gave me a box.
Inside were letters.
One was from my mother.
If Eleanor ever comes after my daughter, tell her the truth.
Another letter mentioned Arthur.
And a third contained the name of the person who had threatened my mother.
I stared at it.
My heart stopped.

The name was:
Daniel Sterling.
