Small mistakes tend to lead to large ones. Ours is a lifetime appointment, and all you have is your reputation. Once it’s gone, it doesn’t comeback.
David Baldacci Quotes

Fiction is sort of a way to set the record straight, and let people at least believe that justice can be achieved and the right outcomes can occur.
