Julia knew the song Conrad had circled by heart. A year ago, she had listened to Sting’s A Thousand Years echo inside her head long after she had taken the headphones off and thrown the CD in the trash.

In many ways, Julia was a prisoner of her mind. She had always been absorbed by thought. Analyzing details most people overlooked. The idiosyncrasy made her crazy sometimes—mystery novels, Clue, any Who Done It puzzle, was solved in a matter of minutes—but it also made her great at her job, whether behind a desk or in the field. She was good at troubleshooting, good at finding a common link and putting the pieces together. Good at figuring out who the bad guys were and more importantly how to nail them. She loved her job and had never sat back and watched the world go by.

But once in awhile, she needed to escape her left brain and enjoy her right. Music was the key in the lock that opened the door and freed her from overanalyzing everything—normal things other people didn’t worry about.

She had ached for Conrad in the days and months after the explosion. She had begged the powers that existed to bring him back. Offered her soul to any devil who could raise him from the dead. Just let me watch him sleep again. Hear him laugh. See his eyes peek at me over a hand of cards. Please.

Wish granted. Conrad Flynn was alive. But he had betrayed her. Not a simple lie or a regrettable indiscretion. Those things she could forgive. No, Conrad’s betrayal had sent her to hell.

And now Michael sat three feet away. She’d felt the slight tremor of the balcony as he’d approached the table and sat down. Keeping her eyes closed, she wondered how she could face him. The man who had reached down into hell and pulled her out. The man who had created a safe, relatively normal world for her. Michael’s world. Comfortable and predictable, it was a fairytale world that offered vestiges of hope.

Under Julia’s closed lids, Michael’s face blurred into Con’s.
