Spirit's Song
““Victor Mazza. He’s a mean one.”
“Yeah,” Jesse agreed. He glanced around the office. It looked pretty much like every other jail he’d been in: a scarred desk, battered filing cabinet, gun rack on the wall, pot-bellied stove in the corner. “I’ve heard of Mazza a time or two, but he’s of no interest to me now.
