Rain lashed against the windows, mirroring the tempest brewing inside Mark. He'd spent the entire afternoon wrestling with a leaky faucet in the guest bathroom, only to find the water pressure worse than before. Now, unpacking boxes was the last thing he wanted to do. He kicked a discarded cardboard box, sending it skittering across the newly-waxed floor.

He sighed, running a hand through his already-messy hair. He had just started to unpack the books when he noticed the paneling behind the bookshelf in the living room seemed off. A gentle nudge and the whole wall swung inward. Another secret, just fantastic.
