a really fun and interesting read A delightful find with the ideal mix of period language in the character’s dialog and in the narrative, the historical context, and the mystery. There should be a follow up novella! |

“We have taken that into careful consideration and deliberation, and we believe that the rescue and safety of the children outweighs the risk of accidentally killing or otherwise harming the children.”

“Maybe that’s what it was like for the believers, where even when they’re not singing those words, they’re in that place with God and Jesus and angels and Santa Claus and Unicorns and Fairies and big rock candy mountains. He pitied them for believing such crap, and he envied them for it too. They were children, and he cherished them.”

“Kaye continued walking and smiled to herself. She stopped suddenly. “Where’s Yappy?” “Dead.” He stood watching Kaye who said nothing. “Buried him right next to dad out there at the pyramid.” “When’d he die?” “Right after Dad. Yappy, just kind of... well you know how dogs are, very emotional, they take these things personally. He used to sit outside Dad’s bedroom. I mean, the room is still full of the man, only he’s not there, to be seen, anymore. Dog has one of the most precisely logical minds to be found in nature. Death doesn't make any sense to a dog, he has no appreciation of it. Like we do. He doesn't know it’s coming for him too. If he did, he'd just say, ‘what is this shit, who’s in charge here, what’s the point?”
