A Slow Death (Max Drescher Book 1) Page 30

by James Craig


  Taking his bronze warrant disc from his pocket, Max placed it on the desk, next to the Beretta. Getting to his feet, he looked around the empty room, silently praying for some kind of last-minute reprieve. When none was forthcoming, his gaze returned to the disc.

  That could actually come in quite handy, now and again.

  Retrieving the disc, Max dropped it on top of the comic and closed the box.

  ‘Time to go.’

  Picking up his belongings, he headed for the door, head bowed.
