    Sensitive Content: mild language and substance useThere is a staircase in the church, just down a short hall from what we used to call the haunted room. The perfect red carpet on the winding flight’s first landing is often bathed in pale, pinkish rays that shine through a stained-glass window, tall and narrow, set high in the wall so you have to tilt your head to properly admire it. One of the amber streetlamps outside reflects itself in the magenta glass; if you stand on the landing after night has fallen, a beautiful, rose golden aura will envelop you like the lurid robes of some royal appar...35None door

His frown couldn't have gotten any deeper. It was the same expression her brother sometimes gave her. Daisy twisted her hands around the metal bat she was carrying. "If you don't answer, I'll assume it's a yes. And if you're wrong, whatever I do to them will be your fault.""Yes, it's them," Clyde said."All four of them?"He clenched his jaw. Eventually he settled for a nod."Was that so hard? And stop looking so offended," sh...35None door
