The corridor of the Edison Apartments was quiet, the silence broken only by the sound of strained breathing. Sal Fisher, in his signature gray hoodie and white prosthetic mask, stood motionless before door 401. His blue sneakers tapped a restless, unconscious rhythm on the linoleum floor.

Sal's mouth opened, but no words came out. His eyes, visible just above the line of his mask, widened, reflecting a storm of shock and bewildered curiosity.
