Genres: Fiction
Late on a weeknight, the restaurant was uncrowded. He sat at the table with his back to the wall, facing the doorway, as he always did, with the deeply inculcated paranoia of an ex-cop.He was thinking about the pass he had come to and the sense that things were deteriorating on him, the business, the leg, Susan.
