Sample text:

            The door opened, and an orderly walked one of the residents inside. The creature wore a choke collar and was muzzled. It was dressed in blue pajamas that were dotted with dried blood and pieces of grue. It found Clint. The dead man’s empty eyes filled with hunger and it immediately reached its gray hands in Clint’s direction. It snarled and jerked its head.

            “This is Gabriel, one of our senior staff and he appears to have Mr. Robin Freethy in tow,” Randall announced.

            “Robin Freethy?” Clint said, impressed. “The film producer?”
            “The one and only,” Randall said, motioning to Gabriel. “Bring him closer.”

            “I don’t know, sir, he is pretty worked up,” Gabriel informed them. He pulled back on the choke collar.

            “Bring him here, son,” Clint insisted. “You have him handled.”

            Gabriel allowed Mr. Freethy to pull closer to the old man.

            “How are you, Mr. Freethy?” Clint spoke loudly, as if he were addressing a man hard of hearing. “I am a big fan of your work. Do you enjoy this place, sir?”
