Chapter 14
Nora's POV
Christine Wald was living in Austin.
Julian found her within an hour, which meant she hadn't been hiding.
She was working as a senior legal consultant for a mid-size private equity firm on the east side of the city. She had a company profile photo on the firm's website.
She looked older than I remembered, her dark hair shorter now, but her eyes were the same. Careful. Measured. Always calculating three steps ahead.
Julian had also pulled Gerald Holt's board history. He left it on my desk in a thick printed folder with a yellow sticky note on the front that only said: "You'll want to sit down."
I didn't sit down. I stood at my desk and read through it standing up, turning pages slowly, and the further I got, the quieter the room became around me.
