They created more questions about how Hannah’s name had been used and what she had been told.

She had been described in records as having an interest in an entity she had never managed.

Documents referred to transactions she could not explain.

Julian’s office had treated signatures as household errands: sign this before lunch, initial that page, don’t keep the driver waiting.

A signature could be genuine while the explanation surrounding it was false.

My old work had taught me that.

The people examining the documents would have to establish what Hannah knew, what she authorized, and what representations other people had made.
