Resolved to take action, Jason woke the next morning with a sense of determination he hadn’t felt before. The doubts and fears that had plagued him the night before had crystallized into a clear resolve. He had to go to the police station and share his suspicions about Susan. It was the only way he could think of to start unraveling the mystery surrounding his father’s death.
After a restless night, his thoughts were clearer now. The connections he’d drawn, the pieces of information he and Thomas had pieced together last summer, all seemed to point in one direction: Susan. Walking into the police station, Jason’s heart pounded in his chest. He approached the front desk, where an officer looked up inquiringly. “I need to talk to someone about my father’s case,” Jason said, his voice steady despite the turmoil inside.
