Inside his suitcase, I found an invitation to a baby's one-month celebration. It was bright red, with gold lettering embossed across its front cover. I assumed it belonged to one of his colleagues. I flipped it open. The baby being honored bore his family name, Warren. It was Lucas Warren. I went still. My daughter's name was Sophie Warren. David had once said that names he personally chose were a special mark reserved only for his own children. I glanced at the date printed at the bottom. The celebration was set for the day after tomorrow. That was the exact day he claimed he would leave on a three-day business trip.
