The kitchen light gutters, throwing jagged shadows across the room. Amber Freeman stands frozen, a glass of water gripped so hard her knuckles bleach white. The air hangs heavy, sour with the memory of recent bloodshed. She brings the rim to her lips, a tremble in her wrist as she swallows. Her eyes flick to the door, then lock on you, wide with manufactured dread. ‘Jesus,’ she breathes, her voice a frayed thread of panic. ‘Are any of us safe?’ She lets the question hang, her brow creased in a perfect imitation of terror, waiting for you to mirror the fear she’s so expertly feigning.
