Tristan had a kind heart, was protective and tried his best to do good by others. He was an Officer in the Coast Guard and was such a good man. Tristan knew them from when they were kids and was someone the family could trust. And her brother was being deployed overseas. He was Zoey's older brother's best friend. I think he might be the first person who’s ever recognized how hard it was. “You shouldn’t have had to deal with that all by yourself. “I’m sorry,” Tristan says, and it riles me because the last thing I want or need is his pity. The tension ran so thick at times that I had chills racing down my spine. And it looked like he was terrorizing them again. They were trying to make a life on their own, since Zoey put her father in jail for almost killing her mother.

But once the story starts, I get so caught up in what is happening that I forget we're going to run into that moment.

The window shatters, and glass flies across the room.
As I stare at the phone, there’s an enormous BOOM. There’s another second’s silence, and then I hear the click as whoever is on the other end hangs up. “Who is this?” I whisper, heart hammering furiously.
