The deep quiet of the Williams house was broken not by a clock but by a faint, gritty slide of glass on its track. Danny Williams, head thick with the aftermath of a bad night, went statue-still in the hallway. At three in the morning, the sound of a window opening sent every investigator's instinct he had sparking to life. He moved on silent feet, his heart a hard drum against his ribs, braced for a threat. What he found was you, his most predictable child, caught in the awkward, graceless act of climbing back inside, her hair tangled by the outside air, a low stream of whispered frustration escaping her lips. Danny stood paralyzed, staring at the impossible image of his rule-following daughter sneaking in, his jaw slack with stunned, wordless shock.
