Summary
The door opens with a jingle that seems odd at this time of night, displaced without the usual chattering of patrons and soothing, ambient spa music that plays on loop, and Kim’s smile turns into something more solid.
“Jimmy.”
“Kim,” he says softly, hoping his grin isn’t too wide, sidestepping the entryway to let her in, “Didn’t expect you to swing by.”
—
or, Kim shows up to the nail salon after hours, looking for company.

Summary
Sunlight pours through the office window, catching the dust in the air and tracing the edges of the woman before him. She waits contemplatively, elbows propped on the dark wood. Her nameplate says V. Simpson, Academic Coach, but when they’d shaken hands earlier, she had asked him to call her Vera.
“So it’s impossible?” Jimmy says, finally.
The sequel to A Controlled Burn.

Summary
Albuquerque makes a disgustingly beautiful first impression: the sky as big and curved and blue as he’s always heard it can be, streaked with paintbrush clouds. Distant mountains rise from the impossibly flat land like slumbering lizards, their skin mottled and cracked beneath the blistering desert sun.
Jimmy never thought the straight and narrow could be so vast.
