Pretending not to notice anything out of the ordinary, she stepped into the living room without changing her
shoes, dropped her phone onto the end table, and sank into the couch, looking drained.
She'd left her shoes on, deliberately. If someone jumped her later, she didn’t want to be stumbling around in
