And suddenly I realized something much worse.
The people who had warned me about Eleanor…
The people who told me she would destroy my life…
Had no idea she was the only person who had ever tried to save it.
But I still had one question.
The question that would reveal the darkest secret my family had hidden for more than twenty years.
“Why did you come
back now?”
Eleanor looked at me.
And her answer changed everything.
“Because Travis, your father knows I’m alive.”
Then the lights in the entire house went out.
