Amara's POV :
The public library opened at nine and I was waiting outside when they unlocked the doors.
The librarian at the front desk gave me a tired smile like she recognized me from before,I always came here when researching random stuff for stories that went nowhere.
I headed straight for the computers in the back, I found an empty one away from the windows and logged in with my library card.
Two weeks suspended meant two weeks I could spend doing nothing but this, digging through everything without Greg breathing down my neck or Clara making comments.
I pulled up the newspaper archive and started searching.
Vale Industries, 2010.
Got a few hits: business deals, a charity gala Edward Vale hosted in February, some stock market stuff that meant nothing to me, an obituary for Edward from March.
Nothing about scandals or investigations.
I tried Sentinel Security Solutions next, got nothing. Too small or too private to make news.
