Walter’s eyes widened slightly at the name, the color draining from his cheeks.

“Reyes is a lead investigator with the Federal Financial Crimes Unit,” Jake explained.

“Hannah has been feeding him your personal and business banking records for three weeks.”

“I kept copies of every document you made me sign, Walter,” I said, my voice steady despite the shaking in my limbs.

“Every tax return, every wire transfer, every offshore authorization.”

“You ungrateful little thief,” Patricia hissed, taking a step toward me with her hand raised.

Deputy Miller stepped immediately in front of her, his arm extended to block her path.

“Ma’am, stay right there.”

The deputy looked at the phone in Jake’s hand, where Major Hayes was still on the line.

“Major, this is Deputy Miller,” he said.

“I have a domestic situation here. I’m looking at physical evidence of child endangerment and lock-out.”

“The federal warrant for financial fraud is already being drafted, Deputy,” Hayes replied.

“Reyes is heading your way with the state police.”
