I didn't sleep that night. Not at all.
Julian's notebook lay open on my desk, but I couldn't look at it anymore. I kept staring at the empty space on my bookshelf instead.
Dad's business ledger was missing.
It had always been there. Always. Brown leather cover with his initials stamped in gold on the front E.V. I had seen it a hundred times. I used to touch it when I was little. I knew exactly where it sat. So I was sure I hadn't imagined it. It was gone.
Maybe Mom had moved it somewhere safe after everything that happened with Dr. Julian and Charles. That would make sense.
But something inside me said otherwise. A bad feeling in my stomach.
What if someone had come into my room and taken it while I was gone?
And what if that ledger had something inside it that they didn't want me
