Quotes by David Nees (?)

“Jane touched his arm. “Do you think this ended with the downfall of the soviets? Where did Putin come from but the KGB? They were heavily involved in this drug scheme along with various interior ministries. While the plan was highly secret,”
― David Nees, The Shaman

“Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better; the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made it possible for evil to triumph.”—Haile Selassie “Beware the fury of a patient man.”—John Dryden”
― David Nees, The Orphan Girl: Book 9 in the Dan Stone Assassin series

“It involved traveling to Moscow, something Dan didn’t relish, especially with the current regime and the war in Ukraine. The President had become more dictatorial since the war had started, and not gone so well.”
― David Nees, The Revenger: Book 8 in the Dan Stone Assassin Series
