But then she receives a letter from a retired FBI agent, which states that everything she knows about her father’s death is a lie. The FBI agent says that her father was murdered and promises to tell her what really happened, but only if she helps him first.

Then there was this letter. It came yesterday morning. In fact, it might have been dropped off a lot earlier but I don't go through the mail that often. It just piles up on the kitchen counter until I go through and throw away all the advertisements, and everything else that I don't need, leaving the envelopes to wait for a better time to be opened.
