Gilded Latten Bones (2010)
“Singe had armed me up, though my lead-weighted head knocker was the only tool of mayhem obvious. I was feeling less confident than I ought, being fully aware that I hadn’t done this stuff for a long time. My skills and instincts had atrophied.
The Dead Man filled my head with an itinerary. And, There will be much to tell once I have had time to reflect. Those things should not have been able to get close. They should not have been able to brush me aside so easily, though it may be a blessing th...at they did. I cannot imagine the mind of a master vampire being more filled with filth.
Five men representing as many interests had been posted to keep an eye on my place. No doubt they knew about one another. They might have pooled resources. Old Bones wanted a roll call. Men doing similar work had come to grief up by Fire and Ice.
This was nothing I wanted to do. Which might suggest that I was past the point where I should stop doing what Tinnie wanted me to stop doing.
If I couldn’t handle the ugliness anymore I should get busy being the neutered door guard I’d seen myself as before this came rumbling down.MoreLess
