I sat at a wobbling motel table under a light that buzzed, and understood, fully, for the first time, the size of what had happened. Seraphine hadn't threatened to kill me. She'd done something cleaner. She'd shown me the knife and slid it away again, unused. She holds the one thing in the world that can end my marriage without spilling a drop of blood.
