Swift feet carried me back to my bedchamber where I pulled notebooks off the shelf and flipped through them. Nathaniel Droll had begun to rattle my brain and shake my nerves. Was he the imposter, or was I? Did he even exist? The torn-out pages with messages from Nathaniel Droll fluttered to the ground. Flipping madly through the remaining notebooks, I found one more:

Follow your heart. It’s rarely wrong, you intelligent girl. Do not lose your life to solve the murder. All I can tell you is this: Darling Aura, fair Aura, I’m too soon dead.

Nathaniel Droll

Fear spiked up my back. I stared at the word dead over and over. Nathaniel Droll was . . .

But he’d called me Aura, just as Papa had. But why didn’t I recognize the writing?

And that’s when the truth filtered through my thoughts. For all the stories we’d created together, everything we’d dreamed up and put on the page, I’d never seen a single written line of his own hand. Only his voice conveyed his captivating, wild stories.

I dug through the desk like mad, pawing through odd papers and trinkets. Surely he must have written something while he lived here. He’d been creating stories since before my lifetime. But no trace of his handwriting existed in the room.
