She Gave My Father's Life Savings to a Con Man

I was away on a business trip when Margaret Abbott called in the middle of the night.

"Grant, your father-in-law has been diagnosed with a terminal illness. The doctors say surgery and specialized medication are his only chance."

When I learned the total cost would run into the millions, I stayed up all night mortgaging both our properties and draining every cent from our savings.

I was planning to visit Luke Fox at the hospital the next morning.

But then I discovered that every dollar I'd scraped together had been transferred away—by my wife.
