Chapter One
Michael gasped for air as he stared into his brother's fathomless dark orbs. If looks could kill, I'd be dead, he thought.
Not that Derrick's gaze needed to do the killing, his massive hands were doing a fine job of squeezing the life out of Michael on there own.
"Did you know?" Derrick seethed, a rare occurrence of him. Derrick was usually the embodiment of calm, the reason the family had chosen him as the overseer. "God, tell me you didn't, Michael!" he continued, pinning him up against one of the thick beams in their barn, which doubled as Michael's office when he was in Harvard and, of course, where the family gathered when there was a meeting or event.
Michael stared into his brother's eyes, which ere bloodshot with fury, the veins in his arm pumped from squeezing his neck. "Of ... course ... not ... Derrick," Michael pushed out one word at a time. It wasn't easy to speak without having any air left in his lungs, but he had to convince his brother that he didn't know anything about their uncle's involvement in the murder of Janelle Heskin.
Michael didn't try to shove his brother off him, though. Not that he could have anyway. At six-foot-six and two-forty, he had about two inches and twenty pounds on his older brother, but Derrick had always been stronger. And Michael wouldn't fight him. The last time he'd really challenged him was the night that Janelle had been murdered. Michael had to live with the guilt that if he hadn't delayed Derrick, Janelle might still be alive.
