Chapter 6 - The Unraveling Papers
Julián kicked open the master bedroom door, storming directly into the walk-in closet.
He knocked over designer shoe racks and handbag displays until his eyes caught a vintage blue tin sewing box resting on the top shelf behind a stack of blankets.
He snatched the box down just as Rebeca threw herself into the closet, grabbing his arm frantically.
"Give that to me!" she wailed, digging her fingernails into his sleeve.
Julián shoved her away forcefully, slamming the tin box onto the vanity table. He popped the metal latch and pulled open the lid.
Inside lay spools of thread, rusty needles, and a thick, yellowed envelope stamped with the official seal of the Metropolitan Forensic Laboratory.
Julián pulled out the folded document, his eyes racing across the medical findings.
