The Missing Money
"What kind of sick game are you playing?" my husband, Mark, snapped through the phone. I stared at my heavy plaster cast and said nothing. In my previous life, distant relatives brought a bag of cash to my clinic, begging me to bump my cousin up the surgery waitlist. I refused. By morning, the money vanished. Security footage showed someone in my scrubs, with my exact face, stealing it. My colleague, Sarah, and my husband accused me of taking the bribe. They destroyed my career. My cousin died waiting. Driven mad by grief, her parents ran me down with their truck. Reborn, when I saw the new surveillance footage, I finally understood who she was.
