The Rhythm Section by Mark Burnell
Have you ever killed anyone? Not in self-defense
What are you asking that for?
Because I'm curious
You can't know what it feels like by being told
I don't want to know what it feels likeI want to know how you actually make the leap from planning to do it to actually pulling the trigger
