Book Excerpt
“Is that our door?” I say.
Who could be knocking on our door? Especially at this
hour? I haven’t had a chance to give everyone our new address yet. I suppose
the delivery guy could be paying us a return visit—maybe he forgot one of our
dishes and we didn’t notice?—but it seems a little late for that. Maybe the
walls were even thinner than we thought and one of the neighbors has come to
complain. Calder’s already climbing to his feet, and he pulls me up beside him.
We return to the living room together.
The pounding is growing louder, more insistent.
“Stay back,” Calder tells me. I can tell by his
expression that he too is unnerved by this late-night visitor. I’m about to
suggest that we ignore the knocking and hope whoever it is goes away when our
unexpected guest stops pounding and starts yelling through the door.
“Come on, Calder! I know you’re in there!”
I freeze. Why is a woman screaming through our door?
Why is she looking for Calder?
I glance over at him, and it appears that he’s just as
shocked as I am. He’s frozen, stunned.
“Who is it?” I hiss. If she doesn’t hear us, there’s
still a chance she’ll give up and go away. I steal a glance at the door, and
I’m relieved to see that both the deadbolt and the chain are in place.
“Dammit!” shouts the woman. “Let me in, Calder!”
Calder is staring straight at the door, and his hands
have curled into fists. He doesn’t appear to have heard my initial question, so
I try again.
“Who is she?” I ask, a little louder this time. “What
does she want?” Is this some angry ex-girlfriend come to bring the wrath down
upon his new apartment? But that doesn’t make any sense—we’ve both had long
talks about our past relationships, and I can’t think of anyone in his past
who’d show up out of the blue like this.
It takes Calder a minute to turn his head toward me.
When he does, he looks stricken. I swear he’s a shade paler than usual.
“It’s Louisa,” he says, his confusion clear in his
voice.
Louisa? I’m certain I know
that name, but it takes a moment for everything to click in my head.
No, she’s not an ex-girlfriend, but rather something
much, much more complicated.
