The name Stubborn Five was one that only Mr. Horton would call him, and there was only one other person

He entered the study again, his gaze falling on the package… then he walked over and picked up the box.

Alongside it was a letter.

What would Madeleine say in the letter?

This must be her last words, right?

Lewis scoffed ironically and threw the letter back on the table. He leaned back in his chair and looked at the marriage certificate on the table.
