Murder Superior
“He had been brought up in the Armenian Christian Church—which he described to people as “like the Greek Orthodox, but not really,” because it was too complicated to go into the history of millennial Church politics and heresies that might not have been heresies depending on whose side you were on, and he didn’t know it all anyway—but once he had become an adult he had given it up. While he had been married to Elizabeth, he had done all the obligatory things.
