The Death of a Friend

Today on The Rap Sheet, January Magazine’s crime fiction-focused sister publication, editor J. Kingston Pierce mourns the unexpected death of his beloved Saab:

One week ago today I lost an old and very dear friend who, despite never having offered a word of appreciation or any declaration of support, ultimately saved my life.

We offer our support and understanding. It probably means something that most of the editorial team at January Magazine are devoted Saab drivers, but I’m not quite sure what. (Well, excellent taste, obviously. But there’s more there, as well.)

Pierce’s touching piece is here.
