Summary :
My life changed one morning when I opened my mail. An anonymous letter informed me that my mother had committed a crime 35 years earlier.
The author of this letter arranged to meet me at a fishing bar on Baltimore Harbor and ordered me not to tell anyone about this story.
I had buried Mum in London in early spring; summer was ending and I was still far from having come to terms with my loss.

Probably the same mistake as me.
