At the grocery store. Lena becomes convinced someone is following her. She's right. But what she doesn't know is that Damien has known about her since the night of the murder. He could simply eliminate her. Instead, he discovers something unexpected: she hasn't told anyone. Not the police. Not her friends. Not even the doctors caring for her father. And when someone inside Damien's organization suggests killing her, Damien refuses. Because there is another solution. Marriage.
