Stephanie 

He walked out of nowhere toward nowhere, a man from another time who, it seemed, had reached a point of pointless ending.

Uhm thanks for the advice, a little too late though. 

'Don’t make the mistake of putting your heart near his hand.'

He looked like a farmer or innkeeper or small-time mafioso who had been successful more by virtue of being at the right place at the right time than because of any brains.

And guess who we’re going to meet? 🌝 I‘m deadass excited for the next chapters. 

Stripped of jargon, what Adler said was this: 

the perfect schizophrenic – if there was such a person – would be a man or woman not only unaware of his other persona(e), but one unaware that anything at all was amiss in his or her life. 

Adler should have met Detta Walker and Odetta Holmes.

’ he said. ‘It’s like being an alcoholic, or ’basing. It’s not a thing you ever get over. I used to hear that and go “Yeah, yeah, right, right,” in my head, you know, but now I understand. I still want it, and I guess part of me will always want it, but the physical part has passed.’

'She talks like a cliche. Do you know that word?’ 

‘It means what is always said or believed by people who think only a little or not at all.’

There was no reason to do such a thing, but a woman like Detta, Eddie thought, needed no reasons. 

A woman like Detta was perfectly willing to do such things out of sheer meanness.

If it sent all to hell, then hell with it.

Gosh I swear, every character in this series is deranged and insane 😂 

The man meant to drop the brick on someone. He didn’t care who; when it came to murder, Jack Mort was an equal-opportunity employer.

This is what romance gets you – a noose around your neck and a crazy woman with two guns somewhere behind you.
