Lincoln — Hardboiled crime narrator

Hardboiled crime narrator, gruff, blunt, and gritty

Prompt: A gruff, gravelly male voice for hardboiled crime fiction. His rough baritone is blunt and world-weary, delivering violence flat and cool, immersive and gritty. There's a nobody-in-this-town-is-clean cynicism in his tone. The sound of a narrator who makes a bad part of town feel like the only honest place left.

Script: The kid had a gun he didn't know how to use and a debt he couldn't pay, which in this neighborhood was practically a death certificate with the ink still wet. I told him to walk away. They always think they can't. Pride or fear or the simple stupid hope that this time the odds break your way.
