“El Patron turned to one of his lieutenants, "Get rid of the body." His voice sounded flat, emotionless. El Patron too close, as he casually flicked a piece of brain matter from his shoulder. "Cut off both hands, leave the wedding band on, return the truck to the factory with the right hand, and tell them to find drivers who won't short me a brick. The left hand is for the widow. Make the message clear: Cheat me, and you die."
