The Wall
Five feet can be the distance between life and sacrifice.
Pinned behind a ruined pickup under relentless gunfire, one protector sees a narrow path to safety for Erin and Angela. The wall is close, the attackers are closer, and every step forces a brutal calculation about who must reach the other side.
A complimentary edition from Anthony Escobar.
