The Face of the Earth

When Mitchell Brannon's beloved wife of twenty years kisses him goodbye one morning and heads off to a conference, he has little idea that his life is about to change forever. Three days later, Mitch returns from work early, surprised Jill's car isn't in the garage. But her voice on the answering machine makes him smile. "Hey, babe, I'm just now checking out of the hotel, but I'll stop and pick up something for dinner. Love you." Hours later, Jill still hasn't returned, and Mitch's irritation turns to dread.
