Chapter Twelve

Ellie stopped and stared once she reached the upper floor. The loft was vast and roomy with large horizontal windows showing the snowfall. Bookshelves lined the walls, and as she flipped the light switch, green bank lamps kissed the corners with light. She walked around in awe, trying and failing to guess how many books Maggie had in the library. Lincoln soon joined her, and he ran to a corner leather chair and curled up into a ball on the cushion.

Ellie ran her fingertips along the spines shelf after shelf. She was expecting to find mostly fiction, like in her own library, a collection of what she’d already read, but instead she found knowledge at every turn. Books on anatomy, science, forensics, psychology, bioarchaeology, genetics, environment, governments, history, physics, and a whole shelf dedicated to the Victorian era. Next to that was a case of old books. Poe, Dickens, Bronte, Collins, Hardy, Wilde, and more. She knew without opening the case that they were collector’s items and very valuable.

She thought back to Abigail Forrester and how her main character was obsessed with Victorian London. Her heart rate kicked up as she came to a shelf dedicated solely to Abigail Forrester books. Ellie scanned the books and knew for certain that every book Abigail had ever written was right here. And then her eyes fell upon the next shelf. Awards lined the top two shelves, and she knew before she read the name that it was true. Maggie was Abigail Forrester.

“Oh, my God.” Her hand went to her chest. All of the awards said Abigail Forrester. “It’s her. It’s really her.” She sank down onto an ottoman. The writer who’d moved her like no other was Maggie. She couldn’t believe it. Of all the people in the world to find her, Maggie had been the one.

“Unbelievable,” she said to Lincoln who raised his head.

Ellie stood, tried to brace herself, and then headed back down the stairs. She had a lot she needed to say to Maggie.
