It showed a house. A woman on the floor. A man in a blue shirt standing over her. And another small figure hiding in the hallway.
Daniel had never owned a blue shirt.
Michael wore them constantly.
With less than 30 hours remaining on the execution clock, Margaret received a phone call from a man who had disappeared five years earlier: Ethan Reyes, the family’s former landscaper.
“I saw what happened that night,” he said. “And there’s something even bigger you don’t know.”

Laura Foster had not died that night.
Ethan had found her barely alive and helped her escape before Michael could finish what he started. A body from a nearby hospital—misidentified through falsified dental records—had been used to stage her death.
Laura had been in hiding for five years.
Waiting.
