The balance of power had changed.Marie, with Candy clasped tight in her arms, was pulled toward the door, but before she stepped out, she turned back for a final look. The woman who had broken her life apart now had nowhere to go but sit back in her cell, surrounded by the law. There was a part of her that felt a chill of satisfaction at how the full circle had come round. But there was another part of her, still smarting from the loss, that wondered what on earth she was supposed to do now.What would she do next?“Let’s get out of here,” Charles murmured, his touch encouraging her to move on.Yet, as they stepped from the room and into the comparative safety of the corridor, a rush of relief and exhaustion washed through Marie.
