“Tilly stood in the corner, in front of three other girls. Alice had a knife. Tilly had a gun. She wasn’t sure if it would be enough.

They’d been near the narrow staircase. Tilly didn’t know how she knew that, but she did. All the other girls were panting, a couple of them close to... sobbing. She lifted the pistol, leveled it at the door. She knew how to handle the weapon in her hands. Once, a man who’d liked to hit her while he had used her had staggered out of her bed drunk, and sick. He’d ended up that way after she’d slid something into the brandy she’d been told to fetch for him.MoreLessRead More Read Less
