Chapter 2 – Thirty Years of Excuses

Chapter 2 – Thirty Years of Excuses

Emma watched her parents' faces lose all color.

For decades, every mistake Daniel made had been explained away.

Every debt was someone else's fault.

Every failed business was blamed on bad luck.

Every family conflict somehow became Emma's responsibility.

Now the evidence left no room for excuses.

Their grandson wasn't the victim.

Their daughter wasn't the liar.

Their favorite child had framed an innocent little girl.

Emma's mother whispered,

"There has to be another explanation."

Detective Mills answered calmly.

"There isn't."
