Snippets from inside the book:

You are probably wondering, if I am dead, how am I telling this story? Well, it’s complicated. I’ll tell you the story if you promise not to judge me. What we did was wrong, but it was the only way. ...A. Burleigh

Suddenly my eyes fell upon Frances and our eyes met intensely. She parted her moistened, luscious lips and spoke softly. “Are you going to give me my package?” ...L. Broussard

killed. I wanted to make certain that he was really dead this time as I reached down and squeezed
his hand. ...G. Foche
