The place where it stood seemed uneven.
Harriet quickly walked over.
In the faint light of the candle, she saw strange patterns on the floorboard.
A familiar scene flashed through her mind.
It was a picture of her living in a quiet cottage.
Her mother, Miriam, used to hold her hand and draw random patterns in her palm.
Those clear lines, if it had only happened once, could have been Miriam casually drawing and playing
with her.
But what if it happened more than once?
