Challenging chapter

“ and isn’t it strange that three grown men here in a century so many thousands of years away to discuss this crime as though it happened in King city yesterday and hadn’t come up for trial”
Discussion between adam samuel and lee

“ And you have left them fatherless” samuel to adam

“ the sheriff was staring at a picture of three cherubim- just heads, curly haired, lipid eyed with wings about the size of pigeons wings, growing out of where their neck would be”
