I’d pegged you as cute-but-boring. But it looks like Kate’s little pet has claws.
Kiernan leans forward. I’m guessing that’s because you make it work, Mr. Houdini. Maybe that’s how you manage . . . He pauses when my kick lands on his shin, but finishes the sentence anyway. . . . s...
Money is power and you ought to be reasonably ambitious to have it.
That surprised me. Not that it wasn’t a damn good game. We saw it again, in fact, after he took up with Kate. Not that either of them paid much attention to what was going on down on the field. That w...
Things settled into a lazy pattern. School, chores, and long hours down by the river. Kiernan talked about the books he read sometimes, even loaned me a few. But I liked it better when he read to me o...
What ladder? There’s a fire escape? I hadn’t even considered that possibility—I mean, really, what homicidal maniac would include fire escapes in the design plan for his torture castle?
Holy trinity of Creole cuisine—bell peppers, celery, and onions—while
Additional thanks go out to everyone at Skyscape and Amazon Publishing, especially Courtney Miller, Terry Goodman, and Tim Ditlow. This has been a wild ride and you’ve all been very patient with a new...
But there’s plenty of truth in fiction.
I don’t know anything for certain. You and I could both explode in the next two seconds. Or the swimming pool over there could have a clone of the Loch Ness monster swimmin’ about on the bottom, ready...

Katherine leaned forward, pushing the glowing
As I’m reading Katherine’s historical diaries, every now and then I’ll see a question that Katherine asked, like, ‘Who is the Infanta?’ or ‘What is a simoleon?’ In SimCity, a simoleon is money, Trey i...
As soon as he turns the key, a man with a heavy British accent starts talking about giants not being meant to live in groups. That’s . . . Hagrid. , Aaron says. I got the full set as a Christmas prese...
But most people are fools, Tilson continues. They see exactly what they want to see and nothing more. It’s like Niemöller said, if you ignore it when they’re taking rights from everyone else, pretty s...
But what if it can’t be fixed? I ask before I even realize I’m going to speak. Or if I can’t fix it without hurting even more people? Sister Elba pauses to close the armonica case and then walks towar...
