| Plot Summary of Found Money |
|---|
"One day, Amy Parchens receives $200,000 in an anonymous package in the mail. It could be the ticket to her being able to finally return to school to study astronomy. But she doesn't feel she can spend it until she finds out where it came from. In the mean time, Dr. Ryan Duffy's father dies, and on his deathbed reveals that $2 million is stashed in a suitcase in the attic. Ultimately the two find out their money came from the same source, that Duffy's father received it as hush money. But from who? And why? It could mean their lives if they try to find out."
