Hausse nodded. “I can glue the skull, stitch the flesh back together. He won’t be the man he was though.”
“Could he shoot a rifle?”

Hausse sighed and turned back to the corpse. He had a suspicion he’d raised this one before, back in the early days of the conflict.
He lit a cigarette and wondered if it was too late for that second career.
