Chapter 11 - LOCKER 214Cedar Union Station had converted old commuter lockers into long-term storage rentals.

Locker 214 still existed.
The key worked.
Inside sat a blue accordion folder.
Emma’s blue folder.
Laura had not hidden it at home.
She had hidden the key.
The folder contained:
Printed invoices.
Placement rosters.
Copies of judicial authorizations.
Photos.
Bank transfer records.
And handwritten notes.
One page:

Another:
Medically fragile children generate premium reimbursement.
Another:
Second incidents are being manufactured to justify longer placements.
I stopped reading.
Second incidents.
Emma.
The second alarm.
