Blake's POV
I left Ford nursing his fourth scotch and his guilt about Piper. The man was a mess, but at least his problems made sense. He'd f****d his brother's fiancée, a virgin no less, and now everyone hated him. Weeks later, she had vanished and her phone was disconnected. Ford couldn't even explain why he needed to contact this Piper woman. I could guess why but he couldn't express his reasons.
The drive back to the office gave me time to think. Ford's suggestion about talking to Cassie's doctor kept circling in my head. Maybe there was a medical explanation for the changes I was seeing. Brain injuries could alter personality, right? I'd heard stories about people waking up from comas speaking different languages or suddenly being able to play piano.
But could trauma rewire someone
