Chapter Sixteen
“Checking out the other cabins does seem like the best thing we can do, but going out there again…I don’t know if that it’s the best idea.” James looked between us. I’d thought he was the one who’d be pushing for us to do more, but as it turned out, he cared about our safety. It was nice, but at the same time, I wanted this conversation to be easier.
He cleared his throat and sighed. “I understand wanting to find out the truth, but sometimes the truth can be something you aren’t truly ready for, and there’s a huge part of me that isn’t ready to learn the truth.”
I smiled at him. “I understand that.” It didn’t matter how complicated it was for me to learn the truth, because I was almost certain I would be missing out on a huge part of who I was if we hadn’t ended up in Clermont, and once I knew who I truly was, I’d be able to start working towards being who I could be. I thought about what Alex told me, and my thoughts drifted towards Alice and Dad as well. All three of them had done their best to help me understand myself, whether or not that had been part of the plan. “I am willing to go alone. I don’t want to drag the two of you into this. I just…if something happens to me, I wanted you two to be the ones to know where I was. Then you could tell someone.”

I wasn’t so certain that was the case, but I was still grateful. “Not necessarily.” I shrugged. “It is definitely dangerous to go out there, but I honestly don’t believe whoever it is would kill me.” As I said those words, I knew they were true, but, again, I had no idea why. “I am a Conway, and that means something to the killer.”
Sabrina and James looked at each other. I was certain they were communicating about something. Then they both looked at me.
“Yeah, it does.” Sabrina shook her head. “I couldn’t tell you what, because Mom would never tell me. I’m certain she knows more about what happened than she’s ever told anyone, apart from the others who were involved. Like your mom. I…it’s been something that’s affected Clermont for a long time, and it’ll be something that affects it far into the future, because it did change so much. The police were lost, but there were those who were working to deal with the problem, and one of those people was your mom, along with your grandmother. I don’t know exactly what Mom was doing, but she did what she had to, from what she said, and she lost people. Now, even if Mom hasn’t said anything, I think we’re
