Daniel spent several minutes studying the photograph on his phone, and although the woman standing beside the black car looked familiar, the image was too unclear for him to identify her with certainty, while the message beneath it troubled him even more, because it meant that someone had been with Grace when she collected the documents and that whoever sent the photograph wanted him to know. He called Michael and asked whether he had seen it, and when Michael said that he had not, Daniel forwa

  • The Lawyer Who Kept Her Secrets

    Daniel went over Helen Morris's words again in his mind before placing his phone on the table, because the name Carter had become their newest lead, and according to Helen, Margaret Ellis had trusted a lawyer with her personal affairs before disappearing from public life, so that if the lawyer had handled her private documents he might know where Margaret went or what happened to the records she had kept. Michael said that they should start with the legal records, since if Carter had represented Margaret there might be a file showing when he began working for her and what matters he handled, and Zara added that she had already checked the old business registration records and found that although Ellis and Partners stopped filing documents several years earlier, there were still traces of its legal and financial activities.Daniel asked whether she could find Carter's full name, and Zara explained that she was trying but that the difficulty was that Margaret used private arrangements f

  • The Search For Margaret Ellis

    Daniel read the anonymous message again before putting his phone away, because whoever sent it seemed to know more about Margaret Ellis than the records they had discovered, and he said that Margaret might be the person who knew where the guardian was and that if they found her they might finally understand what happened after the child left Francis's estate. Michael nodded and said that they must be careful because someone else had already requested access to the same archived documents and they could not allow them to destroy the information before they retrieved it, and Zara opened her laptop and said that she had found another record connected to Ellis and Partners, which had a former administrative office in the city but stopped operating several years earlier, with its last registered director being a woman named Margaret Ellis. Daniel asked whether they could find her residential address, and Zara said that the address in the company record was outdated but that she had found a

  • The Woman Called Margaret

    Daniel placed the photocopy from Evelyn on Michael's desk, where the name Martin Hayes appeared clearly beneath Chief Emmanuel's signature and confirmed that Hayes had been involved in the transfer of Grace's medical records, although the new information about a woman called Margaret was equally important, and he asked who she was, why she accompanied Peter Lawson and what she knew about his mother's records. Michael examined the photocopy and said that they should not assume she was responsible for the envelope, because Evelyn only remembered hearing Peter call her Margaret and they needed to establish her full identity before making any conclusions, and Zara opened her laptop and said that she would check the old medical centre's administrative records, since if Margaret was involved in the transfer there might be a visitor entry or authorisation document bearing her name. Daniel asked her to do it as quickly as possible.Several hours later Zara found an old visitor register that h

  • The Last Envelope

    Daniel spent the entire night thinking about the anonymous caller's warning, because the person had mentioned an envelope that could explain why Peter Lawson disappeared, and he was beginning to suspect that it was connected to the sealed envelope Peter had taken to the private medical centre. The following morning he met Michael and Zara at the office and said that he wanted them to revisit Evelyn James, since she was the last person they knew who saw Peter handling documents connected to his mother, and Michael agreed that her testimony might help them establish where the envelope came from and whether Peter was acting under his grandfather's instructions. Zara picked up her phone and said that she still had Evelyn's contact information and would arrange a meeting, and an hour later Evelyn agreed to see them at a small café near her former workplace.When Daniel arrived with Michael, Evelyn was already waiting and looked uncomfortable when she saw the documents they had brought, and

  • The Lawyer Who Disappeared

    Daniel placed his phone on Michael's desk so that he could read the latest anonymous message, which said, Stop looking for Peter Lawson, because he is not the person you think he is, and Michael read it twice before looking up and saying that someone was clearly uncomfortable with their investigation and that Peter Lawson might be more important than they had initially thought. Zara opened the storage records again and said that the collection document confirmed that Peter Lawson removed the contents of Chief Emmanuel's private storage unit although it did not list everything inside, and when Daniel asked whether they could find out where Peter took the documents, she explained that she had been checking the old payment records and found a delivery charge paid to a private transport company on the same day the storage unit was emptied. Michael asked whether the company still existed, and she said that it did but had changed ownership several years earlier and that she had requested it

  • The Appointment Letter

    Daniel could not forget Beatrice's warning, because the guardian's original appointment letter was more important than the missing transfer agreement and his grandfather had kept another record since he did not fully trust the people handling the child's protection, but the problem was that Beatrice could no longer remember where the letter was kept. Daniel sat with Michael and Zara in the conference room and tried to understand how they could find a document that might not even exist in the official archives, and Michael suggested that they start with the people who had access to Chief Emmanuel's private papers, which included Emmanuel Dike, Peter Lawson and the staff of the legal department.Zara opened the blue notebook and said that there was something they had overlooked, because Daniel's grandfather mentioned the appointed guardian several times but never wrote the person's full name, so he might have kept the appointment letter separately to avoid exposing the identity.
