The first knock came just after midnight — three slow, deliberate taps against the door, patient and almost polite. Agnes Miller opened her eyes. A thin strip of light spilled beneath the door, but the sound hadn’t come from the hallway. It was closer, as if the room itself had exhaled. She turned toward the nightstand, where her worn Bible and silver rosary rested. The beads trembled faintly, catching the moonlight that slipped through the blinds.
