MY 5-YEAR-OLD DROPPED HIS JUICE BOX AND WHISPERED, ‘THAT’S THE LADY WHO PLAYS IN OUR BEDROOM WHEN YOU’RE AT WORK…' My heart stopped right there in aisle four. I looked from my son’s wide, terrified eyes to the mystery woman holding a bouquet near the store exit. Suddenly, every single piece of evidence from the past month clicked into place with horrifying clarity.
