Dead Fall (2012)
“When adrenaline rushed through my system the wounds to my leg were no hindrance but I required the full range of movement and dexterity of my fingers. My hand had been shattered during the same battle where I’d picked up the other injuries, and I’d had to undergo microsurgery to put it right. As I walked, my fists in my pockets once more, I periodically flexed the hand to promote movement.
I had the feeling that I was going to need it in fully functioning order.
For someone in my line o...f work, speed of hand is the difference between life and death.
I hear you’re supposed to be some kind of knight errant these days.
Don Griffiths’ words had been meant as sarcasm. Right now they elicited the required response: a wry smile. Knight errant? That was just one fancy term that had been leveled at me. I suppose it was better than vigilante, which was more often the case. At least the term carried the honorable connotations that I hold dear.MoreLess
