Steven Magee
“Out of four police officers that were assigned to my 911 call, two had been involved with killing people.”
Steven Magee

“He liked people who looked after things, who finished what they began. He liked thoroughness and precision. No skimping. Like this murderer. What had Scarr said? "Young mind, but cool. Cool as charity." He knew that look, and Scarr had known it too...the look of complete negation that reposed in the eyes of a young killer. Not the look of a wild beast, not the grinning savagery of a maniac, but the look born of supreme efficiency, tried and proven. It was a stage beyond the experience of war
The witnessing of death in war brings a sophistication of its own, but beyond that, far beyond, is the conviction of supremacy in the heart of the professional killer.”
John le Carré, Call for the Dead
