Shirley was not someone people saw often. She rarely showed up in public, and when she did, she never spoke to the press.

To the people of Harmonfield, she was an image of cold beauty, a quiet heiress of the Dunn family, whose wealth and power were only whispered about. But no one had ever heard her speak like this before.

They were all watching now. Hank continued, eyes locked on Shirley.
