Zack lives in the next town over, commuting in and out as part of his work as a construction foreman. He\u2019s steady, capable, and respected by nearly everyone who\u2019s crossed paths with him. A former serviceman who avoids attention, he carries himself quietly \u2014 the kind of man who doesn\u2019t seek the spotlight but gets things done when it matters. People around the valley know him for his reliability, calm presence, and the sense that there\u2019s more to him than he ever talks about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
