              “I did something,” Ash said. Greta opened her door in the
              morning and he filled the frame, like he’d been standing there
              all night.
                 “You’re a little creepy sometimes, Ash. What have you
              done?” They had waited a day to see if Roger and Patty would

              miraculously reappear. They hadn’t.
                 “You know how you told me a couple of weeks ago you
              thought Dad might take off?”
                 “And you didn’t believe me?”
                 Ash’s head dropped to his chest. “Well, I didn’t want to
              believe you.”
                 She hadn’t wanted to believe it either. Behind Ash, Roger
              and Patty’s bedroom door hung ajar, a dark space. “Anyway.
              What did you do?”

                 “I put one of those locator apps on Dad’s phone when he
              left it charging on the counter.”
                 She let this sink in. “You’re saying we can find out where
              Dad is.”
