“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

“discipline”
Mike Markel, Deviations

“ranchers in the whole county already had”
Mike Markel, Fractures
