so long as his wife
as reply to Fall Asleep
Some of his best naps had taken place in a hot car. Just cracking the window a bit and having the sun bake you inside. If you didn't sleep too long it was one of the most comfortable feelings. It was like when a heavy person laid on top of...

george would be okay with that
as reply to For the Morning
He hadn't even been gone 48 hours now. He could go back and they could make up a story. He'd be back before four days. Not even a full work week. When you were gone for that short of time you could make up any story. A family tragedy he...

flight risk

In the store he got bread and cheese. The cashier didn't look at him more than she needed to. She wasn't part of the network. They hadn't gotten to the folks out here yet. but soon they would. He would try to savor these few days of freedom before everybody...

two options
as reply to All Gone
"Wait I thought his name was spelled Marc not Mark?"
How did his wife know that he had said Mark instead of Marc? didn't both names sound the same? Wasn't the spelling only something you could see?

without much confidence
as reply to Said
The younger detective didn't know why they had to act this way. They were given instructions on how to proceed through a manilla envelope with plain black sans serif font, center spaced. A few sentences, with ample vertical space between.
They were supposed to act confident, like they knew what was...

mind escape
as reply to Rearview Mirror
He was not drunk at all in fact. The situation had knocked the stupor out of him and left him feeling stone cold sober. A kind of sobriety he hadn't felt in a while actually. Even without drugs or alcohol we dulled ourselves in some ways. Got settled into a...

would you mind?

"George."
He knew something was wrong as soon as he was approaching the crowd of people huddled around the outsider. The outsider looked like a police officer of some sort. But not in uniform. It was Jane who said the name. "George. I know you two were really close."

the next chapter meant accepting his past

Marc Love stared out the window letting the sunlight hit the back of his retinue. He saw the same FedEx truck drive back that drove by every day at 3 pm. He had known this from his doorbell camera. Now he was watching from home. He had gotten used to...
