Ransom
Ariana Meyer was born in a family that resented her. She grew up in miserable conditions – with a drug-addict mother and an absent father – but climbed out of the gutter to become financially successful. She married a Frenchman, Lucien Valier, and later settled in Phoenix, Arizona with her husband and his daughter Eugenia.
Several years into their stay in Phoenix, Eugenia was kidnapped and held for ransom. Although the ransom was paid on time, there was no sign of Eugenia. Three years later, Ariana suffered a heart attack when she received Eugenia’s wedding photograph in the mail.
Alicia (nee Eugenia) was married to Damien Garvin for a couple of years but Damien quickly sank into alcoholism, and the ransom money was all but gone. Alicia was forced to take a night job in a restaurant to make ends meet until she discovered that she was pregnant. She was forced to move into a women’s shelter where she gave birth to a little girl, Aria. While she was about to call her parents with the intention of going home, Damien bursts into the premises brandishing a revolver. He was delirious as he phoned Lucien with another ransom demand. What happened next? Did Ariana and Lucien ever get to see Eugenia alive again? Or did Damien make his threats a reality and kill both Eugenia and Aria?
