Timeline: The Gretta Graves Story

This “tattletale” story winds round about with tales of poisonings and detective work. Venus was a pawn used against her loving parents for over a decade. Her heart broke a little as Gretta recounted poisoning Faith systematically and Elijah’s health issues after Venus’s business deal went sour. Gretta Graves grinned as she talked about Elijah’s asthma. “People die from asthma too,” she commented to Venus on a moonlit night—then continued to tell the story slowly, methodically, and in detail. Venus felt hatred rising to her throat. She wasn’t sure how she would get out—Gretta’s plan started unraveling.
