Part 3, Chapter 51 Summary: “Niall”

Niall calls Claire, the woman who sent him the information about the anonymous phone number and Luke’s email. He asks her to check the logs of HOLMES to see if anyone deleted an entry for Andrew Smith. She tells Niall that George Louis deleted the DNA of two men—Andrew Smith and Pete Arbuthnot. He also removed the entry on Alexander Hale and James Lancaster, then reinstated it a few days later.


Niall connects the dots in his head. George ordered the murder of Luke, then used his abandoned warehouse to do it. Isabella was supposed to oversee it. However, they didn’t consider that the security guard would post a video of the incident—or that Luke would fight back.

Part 3, Chapter 52 Summary: “Niall”

Before doing anything else, Niall decides to go observe George’s home. He stays there late into the night until, a little before midnight, George and Isabella come out of the house.


Niall hears George talking on the phone. He calls her Janet—which is the name of Alexander Hale’s mother. Before hanging up, he calls her “sis.” Niall realizes that George and Janet must be siblings, connecting George to Alexander’s death. He then wonders if Luke was somehow involved in the deaths of Alexander and James.
