Chapter Seven is in the queue.
James and his family receive unwelcome visitors: his estranged mother and creepy brother arrive in Washington, convinced he’s dead and eager to claim what they believe she’s owed — accompanied by a slimy attorney ready to manipulate the law. But it’s James’s brother who unsettles the household the most. He moves quietly on the edges, rarely seen but always felt. His eyes linger too long on Karen and Andi, casting a shadow over the home. His silence and presence put the women on edge — an unexplained danger.
Chapter Six is in the queue. The Mercer family continues to evolve.
As promised, I have Chapter Three in the queue.
James is back in the United States. The reason for his return is painful—he had to say goodbye to someone very close to him. But that’s not the only difficult thing he’s facing. He also has to deal with seeing Karen again, along with his daughters. Seeing them is a double-edged sword: he feels anger toward Karen and guilt for not being there for his girls. Not everyone is happy to see him either, and he has to navigate that tension. Now, he's facing challenges he never had to confront when he left the country.
I am currently on the road on my way to go see my oldest grandson play in his first high school football game. Taking a break at a travel center, I decide to get something to eat and fuel up. Sitting here and eating, I decided to check in to see how the new story is doing. Imagine my surprise that I see Chapter Two sneaked in and has taken on the role of Chapter One.
In my rush to get out the door this morning, fumble fingers here linked the wrong chapter. I am going to correct that error now. So those interested can read a two for one story beginning.
