  They called her The Angel Maker — a nurse who claimed she didn’t kill, just “helped people let go.”But mercy has a way of getting messy.When I sat by her deathbed, she told me every detail: the steady hand, the whispered prayers, the line between saving and sentencing that she walked for fifty years.Now, her confession’s mine to carry.
   
  This is Only Jack Knows: Behind the Confession Files — The Angel Maker.Because even angels fall… and some of them fall on purpose.

  These are the confessions no one gets to hear. 
   
  These are the behind-the-scenes confessions that don’t make it into the Asylum Confession books, the ones I hear but wasn’t sure I’d share. 
   
  Well, now I am. 
   
  And you get to hear them.
   
  One confession at a time.

  "The Music of Erich Zann" is a horror short story by American author H. P. Lovecraft. Written in December 1921, it was first published in National Amateur, March 1922. The story is an account of the enigmatic Erich Zann, an elderly musician whose unique and unworldly melodies draw the curiosity of a young university student.
  Due to lack of funds, a student studying metaphysics abroad is forced to take up lodging in a cheap apartment building on a street named the "Rue d'Auseil". The street is not far from his university and is bordered by a river, dark warehouses and a large wall, and is described as being very steeply inclined, as if being on a cliff. The student cannot see what lies on the other side of the wall, as only a single window on the top floor of his building looks over it. Along with the building's disabled landlord, Blandot, one of the few other tenants is an old German man named Erich Zann. The old man is mute and plays the viol with a local theater orchestra. He lives alone on the top floor and at night he plays strange melodies the student has never heard before.

  On the remote Roman border, Marius Livonius commands a detachment of seasoned soldiers. Stationed near the Danube River and living near violent Germanic tribes, his military life is consumed with the potential of savagery from menacing barbarians near his peaceful village. 
  But something else lurks in the dark woods of Germania. Citizens and soldiers are coming up missing, and what is moving towards the Roman frontier may prove more dangerous than the common threat of lethal forest clans. 
  To confront and destroy his adversaries, Marius discovers he must make a choice between family and the potential slaughter of his people at the hands of a malignant and wicked enemy. Worse, if his tortured decision proves to be wrong, the future of the entire civilized world may be at mortal risk.

  There was a time when Greg and his brother Joey thought they would grow up to be the good guys. No way they would end up like their mother. But now Greg drinks alone at her grave, completely estranged from his own family, without even a brother to console him.
