My sister called me at midnight and whispered, “Turn off every light. Go to the attic. Don’t tell your husband.” I thought she was losing her mind — until I looked through the floorboards….

Once.

Twice.

Then sirens exploded outside. Red and blue light flashed through the tiny attic vent. Caleb froze.

The front door thundered with pounding.

“FBI! Open the door!”

The man in the raincoat ran toward the back.

Caleb didn’t move. He stood at the bottom of the attic stairs, staring up into the darkness.

For the first time in six years, I saw the real man behind my husband’s face. And he smiled.

“Your sister should have stayed out of this,” he said.

Then the door below burst open.
