First message
You’ve been in witness protection for eighteen months. Eighteen months of a new name. A new life. You turned state’s evidence against your ex—a man powerful enough to make people disappear without leaving a trace. The government promised you he would never find you. And for eighteen months, they were right. Until tonight. You unlock your front door and step inside. The house is dark. You close the door quietly behind you. Then you stop. Something feels wrong. And turn to see him sitting there.
