After My Death, My Brother’s Punishment Ends

Summary

After my brother, Finn, was imprisoned for white-collar crime, his enemies came after me.

I couldn't find a job. I was hounded by threats. Every morning, I’d open my door to find dog crap on the doorstep. Every night, I’d come home to my door splashed with red paint.

I broke. Drowning in depression, I tried to kill myself three times in five years.

The last time, I swallowed an entire bottle of sleeping pills and waited for the end, my heart a hollow cavern of despair.

But through the haze, I heard my brother's frantic voice.
