Quotes by Mike Markel (?)

“it. The floor squeaked as he opened the door. I almost didn’t recognize him. He looked ten years older than he had this morning. His posture was slumped, and his face was all pale and doughy. His eyes were red-rimmed. “Detectives.” His voice was soft as he stood aside for me and Ryan to come in.”
― Mike Markel, The Broken Saint
