Story
The story
Ethan returns early from a business trip when a blizzard grounds all flights. At home, he finds his wife Chloe with a younger man, Nate, and she insists it was only an in-home massage. When he goes to check on their six-year-old daughter Lily, he finds her nearly buried in snow on the balcony, where she was locked out all night in fourteen-degree weather.
At the hospital, the doctor says Lily suffered hypothermia too long and has multiple organ failure; she has little time left and keeps murmuring for her mother. Chloe's phone stays off, and when Ethan finds her at her office, Nate boasts about locking the girl out. Chloe refuses to believe Lily is dying, slaps Ethan, and defends Nate instead.
Ethan pleads with his wife to come see their daughter one last time.
Opening excerpt
To keep our six-year-old daughter from interrupting their fun, in fourteen-degree weather, my wife's lover locked her out on the balcony all night.
By the time I got home, my daughter was barely breathing. The prolonged exposure to the cold had caused multiple organ failure.
Sobbing, I begged my wife to come to the hospital to see our daughter one last time. She couldn't care less, even angrily slapping me across the face.
These are the opening lines of chapter 1. Keep reading →
