Chapter 6 - The Arrest on the Porch“I can't sign them, Nathan,” I said, looking him straight in the eye. “Or should I call you Nathan?”

Diane froze, dropping the notary stamp onto the table with a loud clatter.

Nathan’s face went ghastly pale. “What did you just say?”

“Your name isn't Evan Mercer,” I announced, my voice echoing clearly through the high-ceiling room. “Evan Mercer died nine years ago in Ohio. And you’re still legally married to Rebecca Lawson!”

Nathan lunged across the table to grab my arm, but I pushed open the heavy glass patio doors and stepped onto the sunlit deck!

WOOO-ROOO-ROOO!

Siren lights exploded through the pine trees surrounding the estate driveway!

Three black SUVs and two police cruisers tore up the gravel, blocking Nathan’s vehicle! Armed federal agents and county officers swarmed the porch with weapons drawn!
