Filed in Someone Else's Name
Ashworth & Associates, Caldmere
Someone filed a fraudulent bar complaint against Caldmere's only solo patent attorney — using forged Ashworth & Associates letterhead. The question is which of three people inside that stately Federal-era townhouse had the nerve to sign someone else's name.
Everyone has something to hide.
Evelyn's son. Has his mother's intelligence but none of her patience. Competent but not exceptional, and increasingly frustrated by the gap.
27. Nonbinary. Reserved, precise, dry. Came to Caldmere to disappear. Manages the library's digital catalog, security cameras, and alarm system — quietly overqualified for a small-town library.
The conscience of Caldmere. Has run the Gazette for twenty-two years. Fierce, principled, and terrified that the paper will die before she does.
