The Barclays' Secret
Bourdin didn't believe the Barclays' grief was authentic. While in police custody, he offered this unsettling caveat: Why had the Barclay family welcomed him into their home with open arms when it was so painfully obvious that he wasn't their son?
Bourdin was visibly older. He had different hair, eyes, facial features, and a mysterious French accent. He "couldn't remember" anything about Nicholas' childhood in San Antonio. It just didn't add up.
The only reason the Barclays allowed Bourdin to pose as their son was because they had no other choice.
