FLORENCIA FOURTIER and Adrien Fourtier were a sweet couple who gave birth to two beautiful children; Esteban and Claire Fourtier. They were kind to others, didn't have any known enemies, and liked to help others as much as they could. They were loved, very well known in Normandy, France.
And, their children? They are exactly the same — well, maybe a little trouble-making, but they have a good heart. Key word when described the couple: were. Florencia and Adrien are no longer alive.
The death of the two hit national news because of the circumstances. They were killed. Harvey was seven, his sister was six when it happened. Florencia was found in the kitchen, several stab wounds ranging from her shoulder, down to her feet. She bled out to death. Her husband, however, had it much easier. Well, not easier, but he left the world in less pain than she did. He died of a single stab directly to the heart
Esteban was found hovering over his mother's body when they found out she died. Claire was crying in her room, away from the blood and gore. Harvey's hands were stained of blood, and his white graphic tee was covered in the same thick red substance as his hands.
Because of the this, the french police managed to convince themselves that the young boy was guilty. Of course, the jury and the court wouldn't stand to hold a seven year old boy, who was clearly innocent. There was a lack of evidence.
But by the time Esteban was declared innocent, the news had gotten out. That the murder of Florencia and Adrien Fourtier was unsolved and the primary suspect was a seven year old boy who lashed out when he was angry.
From there, the two siblings had to have been relocated into the United States, a completely new identity made for them. Esteban Fourtier was now Harvey Martin, and Claire Fourtier was now Amelie Martin. And instead of living in Normandy, they now were situated in Boston.
They lived perfect lives, adopted a year after being placed into the foster system. They had it lucky. Their old life was left behind, and they never spoke about it in public. Hell, the two never talked to anyone except each other. They were outcasts.
That was until Ben Rifkin was found dead in the woods, and Jacob Barber was declared a suspect. Harvey felt bad for him. He was young was he was accused, but he remembered every moment of it. Harvey talked to Jacob about it, and he could see it in his eyes. Jacob had to have been innocent. No — he was innocent.
From there, the two became close. And Harvey made a promise; he'd make sure that Jacob wasn't arrested for a crime he didn't commit. Even if it'd get him in trouble.
OR
IN WHICH, the boy with a dark past made a vow to protect Jacob Barber from getting into any trouble.
