The live camera feed came up on my screen.

The clock in the corner said it was five in the afternoon back in Texas.

The high-definition camera on the front porch gave a clear view of the driveway.

The angle also took in the big front bay window that looked straight into our kitchen.

The house was perfectly still.

The silver sedan wasn’t in the driveway.

I kept my eyes on the kitchen window.

The lights inside burned bright against the late afternoon shadows on the lawn.
