assured her that someone would be on duty for suspicious people entering and leaving the building, and they would watch Owen’s house on camera until the threat had been dispersed.
    The threat.
    Christ, that sounded so melodramatic. Though Genny knew that she had made quite a few enemies on the path to convicting Admiral Trace and Dr. Kant, she hadn’t believed that anyone might actually want to hurt her.
    Apparently, she’d been wrong.
    This was all so surreal. Just when they thought they’d taken care of their troubles, a new set cropped up. Being under surveillance by the police didn’t speak particularly well to her new position, and she could only imagine what the Riperton Board thought.
    She was contemplating taking lunch when a low knock came on her office door. “Come in.”
    Stella poked her head in, making Genny smile. “Hey Stella, what’s up?” The redhead, however, looked less thrilled. Stepping into the office, she closed the door quickly behind her before crossing to Genny’s desk.
    “Gen, I know you’re busy right now, but I just received this new patient intake form. With all that’s going on, I figured you should see it.” She set a folder before her companion, her mouth pulled downward in a frown.
    Genevieve arched a brow, opening the folder at Stella’s behest. When her name fell on the information for the new patient, her eyes immediately widened.
    Jonas Kant. The picture next to the name could have been Daniel twenty years earlier, and it didn’t take much more reading for Genny to discover that the twenty-five year old was, indeed, the son of the recently incarcerated doctor. She looked up at Stella in disbelief. “Jonas Kant? I didn’t even know Daniel had a son.”
    “Neither did I.” Stella replied gravely. “He never mentioned him.”
    The silence hung, thick, between them as they both contemplated what neither of them would say. Could Kant’s son be responsible for all the nastiness Genny had experienced? And was he bent on revenge for what had happened to his father?
    But that, of course, wouldn’t make sense. The moment Genny gave it more than a passing thought, she realized the ludicrousness of the idea. If Jonas had sent her a threatening package and knew that the police were onto him, why the hell would he ask to be a patient at Riperton? It would be like playing into the authorities’ hands.
    The hospital had security cameras in every corridor and, secretly, in every psychiatrists individual office, just to ensure the doctors’ safety. Genny bit her lip as she contemplated. She supposed there was a chance that this was just a very big coincidence. Two months after his father was put away, Jonas Kant came up as a new intake at the hospital he used to work for.
    She groaned inwardly. Genny knew that if Owen caught wind of this, he wouldn’t let it go; and after she’d been wrong about his suspicions the first time, she knew she should be more careful now.
    After a moment, she handed the folder back to Stella. “Who’s treating him?”
    The redhead exhaled hotly. “I was going to give him to Henry Underhill, if you approved it.”
    “Let me take him.” Stella’s shock was evident the moment the words left Genevieve’s lips. The dark-skinned woman had just gotten to the point that she was able to take her own patient’s appointments. Adding someone else to her roster – let alone the son of Daniel Kant – probably seemed like a ludicrous idea to anyone with sense.
    But in Genny’s analytical mind, it seemed like the safest option. She was sure that Owen wouldn’t approve, but the fact of the matter was that the police were keeping a close eye on her. The moment they got wind of her taking Jonas as her patient, he would be under a microscope. His every movement would be monitored, from his sessions at the hospital to everything he did once he left the grounds.
    If he so much as sneezed, the cops would be all over him.
    It was the safest route to take. Rather
