His silent, stony face was only inches away now. He was so near, so terribly near — and then he moved to close the last bit of distance.

About This Quote

His silent, stony face was only inches away now. He was so near, so terribly near – and then he moved to close the last bit of distance. The author uses this quote to describe a person who is very close to someone who is either scared or thinking of doing something very wrong. It is a strong position to be in.

If the character is scared of what this person may do, then it can bring fear into the heart of that character. If the character has made up his mind to commit a crime, then this close proximity could make it seem like the only way out.
