Matt’s laptop still lay open and unlocked, when the techie was paranoid about not signing out if he stepped away. Anna’s wineglass had broken on the floor, red wine spilling across it. Ryan’s bag of Chex-mix had fallen over on the couch. And the office chair Eric had been sitting in was slowly spinning, empty.
They were gone.

If you have two minutes, you’d make this author’s day if you write a short Amazon review, or even just a star rating! It really helps. And thank you!
