When Marcus's ex-girlfriend shows up unannounced and makes herself at home in their house, any reasonable wife would throw her out—but our narrator serves her breakfast instead. What starts as an uncomfortable morning quickly spirals into a psychological chess match where every smile hides a threat and every kind gesture conceals a trap. As the ex settles in with no intention of leaving, the boundaries between guest and intruder, past and present, victim and villain begin to blur in dangerous ways. Someone is playing a calculated game in this kitchen, but who's really in control? In this razor-sharp domestic thriller, you'll question everything you think you know about power, marriage, and just how far a woman will go to protect what's hers.
