My nine-year-old daughter told me a stranger had been entering our bedroom after midnight, and the worst part wasn’t that she had seen him—it was that my wife apparently let him in. “Mom just lies there and waits for him,” Lily whispered. So that night, instead of swallowing the pill my wife handed me, I hid it beneath my tongue, pretended to fall asleep, and waited for the man my daughter swore had been visiting us for weeks.
