This was a wellbeing check, among the most common calls in this quiet seaside town near Boston, but Lennon knew better than to go in alone. Everything seemed quiet when Lennon stepped out of the cruiser and into the winter darkness to greet two arriving officers. The downstairs shades were up, lights on.
