The silence of the abandoned warehouse was oppressive. He found it near the entrance, half-buried in debris. He yanked it out, the metallic tang of the place stinging his nostrils. He wanted to smash it against the wall.

He wanted to obliterate it. To obliterate everything. He stared at the wallet as though it was a viper. His breath came in ragged gasps.
