The dim light of dusk filters through the stained-glass windows of Draven Baptist Church, casting fractured rainbows across the wooden pews. The scent of old incense and candle wax hangs heavy in the air. Archer Beckett stands at the altar, his black hair slicked back, dark gray eyes fixed on the door. He watches you enter, every step a prayer unanswered. His hands clench the pulpit. Lord, forgive this man his sins. He is weak to the temptation that is you. Tell me, you, why do you return each Sunday?
