“We need to talk about your test results,” the doctor said, leading us to a private room.
“I’m Dr. Martinez, head of toxicology.”
He pulled up charts on his computer screen.
“What we found in your blood work is disturbing,” he said.
“Your blood shows elevated levels of thallium, a highly toxic heavy metal. It’s often called the poisoner’s poison because it’s colorless, odorless, and the symptoms can mimic other illnesses.”
My heart stopped.
“Thallium,” I whispered.
“Yes,” Dr. Martinez said. “It’s commonly found in rat poison, but it’s strictly controlled.”
“Someone would have to deliberately obtain it and administer it regularly to cause these levels.”
Dr. Martinez leaned forward.
“Anna, is there someone who might want to harm you?”
Before I could answer, the door burst open.
A police detective walked in, followed by two uniformed officers.
“I’m Detective Sarah Torres,” she said, flashing her badge. “The hospital called us when they saw your results. We need to ask you some questions.”
The next hour was a blur.
I told them everything.
The mysterious illnesses that started when Deanna moved in.
How I only got sick from her food.
