Chapter 57

The letter my parents left gave me the name of the company that had made me. Chymera Tech Industries. They had all kinds of satellite locations around the world, but what do you know, its headquarters was only two states over from me. And they were hiring.

I drove there in my packed Suburban, along with the box of lies inherited from my parents, not a tiny shoebox either. We're talking a full-sized business box. They'd kept it inside their closet, in a safe I never suspected existed. They left me the location and combination in their will, along with that damnable letter.

I should have burned it but, instead, read it over and over as if maybe the hundredth time it would make sense.
