ART 2: THE MAN WHO HAD DISAPPEARED RETURNED TO EXIST KARA

—He found something.

-Maybe.

My phone vibrated again.

This time it was Kane.

He only wrote one line.

“The three boys did not act alone.”

I felt a chill.

“There is a fourth man.”

"Adult."

“He entered the campus thirty-seven minutes before the attack.”

“He left twelve minutes later.”

“He drives an SUV registered to Cole Construction.”

I slowly raised my gaze.

The detective was still waiting.

—Detective Harper…

—What if this had never been a fight between students?

She frowned.

—What are you implying?

Before I could reply, the last message arrived.

A photograph.

A man in a suit getting out of the SUV.

As I enlarged the image, I felt my whole body tense up.
