Then someone knocked on the door. Not a friendly knock. A firm, official one. When I opened the door, a young police officer stood on the porch. “Are you Linda?” he asked. I nodded, unable to speak. He handed me a folded note. My name was written on the front in handwriting I recognized immediately — Grant’s. The message read: “Mom, don’t call anyone. Don’t ask questions.

I locked the door and got into the police car. During the drive, anxiety twisted inside me. “Where are we going?” I asked. “Not far.” “Not far where?” “Somewhere safe.” My phone buzzed. A message from Mark appeared: “Mom, please don’t panic. Just trust us.” Trust them — after four hours of silence. Finally, the police car pulled into the parking lot of a community center I recognized.
Outside were cars that looked familiar. Mark’s SUV. Sarah’s sedan. Jason’s truck. Confused and shaking, I followed the officer inside.…
