Chapter 1: The Unraveling Clara Bennett stood in the hollow silence of her Manhattan apartment, cardboard boxes stacked like tombstones around her. At 34, she’d become a relic of her own life—a former marketing executive laid off in a corporate purge, a wife replaced by a younger, sunnier version of herself.
