Chapter 76
“Because it was never reported.”
“Why not?”
“I didn’t actually steal anything, and the guy never knew I entered his house.”
“Please explain that.”
He walked them through his visit to the house in question and his discovery of data on the computer.
“Mr. Mayhew, what did those files contain?”
“Documents and spreadsheets. Most of the documents were written in a foreign language—probably Russian, because that’s where the owner of the house is from. There was enough stuff in English to let me know that the Russian documents weren’t letters back home to his grandma. I think the guy has something to do with the Russian mob. The numbers in the spreadsheets had lots of zeroes after them.”
“Where are those files now?”
“Still on my thumb drive and in a very safe place.”
“You’ll need to be more specific than that.”
“It’s in a safe deposit box in a bank, okay?”
“Which bank?”
“First Guaranty.”
“Which location?”
“The main branch on King Street.”
