The Spare Key

by Colby Reyes

A collection of short stories from a former police officer, set in the same tired desert town across forty years. A locksmith who knows every house. A diner that never closes. A patrol car that keeps passing the same window. Quiet, human, occasionally funny stories about the people a small place forgets to notice.
