On the way home, I rested against Carter's chest, feeling his warmth and listening to his steady heartbeat.

From my own death to Penelope collapsing, Esmee's car accident, and now Ethan's.

The only survivor was barely holding onto life.

I clung tightly to Carter's shirt, unable to understand who could be so cruel.

What had the Sanders done to deserve such madness?

"Carter, haven't you found anything about the Carlines yet?" I asked, frustration rising in my voice.

"You said 30 years ago? Fabian is only in his 30s, right?

"Exactly. The person who bought it and built the garage was named Lionel Cress."

The more I listened, the more confused I became. "Do hey have any connection?"

"From the information we've gathered, no. It seems to have been a standard real estate transaction.

"Do you have any details on Lionel?"

He was the first to build something on the former mass burial site, so if there was something shady, it would likely be him.
