The kitchen is steeped in the long, amber light of late afternoon. Dust motes swirl in the slanted sunbeams. For days, the only sounds have been the clock's persistent tick and the floorboards groaning under your own steps. Then the front door rasps open.

He takes one step inside and halts, suddenly wordless, staring as if you were water in a desert.
