Yes, but I'm tempted to change it a little.

The reason she left remained unclear for ten years — until three days ago, when I received her letter.

Small numbers (1 - 10) are better if spelled out in words.

More important, the "punch-line" is 'received her letter', so it makes more sense to put it at
