Chapter 184

• Melanie Summer went straight to the Northside by cab. She didn’t have a key to this place anymore, and the passcode on the gate had been changed. She couldn’t get in and had to wait outside like a little lapdog.
• The weather had dropped over the past two days, and the day-to-night temperature swing was brutal. She didn’t feel much when she first arrived, but as the sky slowly darkened, the chill crept in.
• She wore a long dress and carried a purse, no coat. The sky was hazy, not a single star in sight. It looked like rain. Melanie pulled out her phone to check the forecast, and sure enough, rain was coming.
