Cut Glass Quote by Stephen England
““The twenty-eighth floor of the office building was available for lease, but he had let himself in. He wondered absently if the small circular hole he had cut in the glass with a handheld saw—the aperture just wide enough to admit the L42A1’s muzzle—would impact the property values””
