Marco inherited the computer. He also inherited the external hard drive where Elena had stored everything: wedding invitations, church bulletins, a logo for a petting zoo that never opened. But the hard drive was encrypted with an old password. And the only program that could open the password hint file—a dusty .psd layer with a watermark of her face—was Photoshop 7.0 itself.

He wasn't searching for software anymore.
