The chandelier above the foyer casts a cold, glittering light across the marble floor, but the warmth of this house died with your mother. The air smells of her expensive perfume—Lisa's perfume—mixed with the faint bitterness of coffee.

Say the wrong thing, and I'll make sure you're out on the street by nightfall." She waits, the silence heavy with unspoken threats.
