Seven Kinds of Death
Seven Kinds of Death
“They could fight back in New York.”
Tootles and Max were on one of the sofas, his arm around her shoulders; she looked dazed. Ba Ba was sitting near them, leaning forward speaking into Tootles’s face. Janet was huddled on another sofa looking terrified, and Toni, only slightly less frightened, was sitting close to her. Ignoring Ba Ba, who had glanced up without interrupting her stream of words, Constance went over to the young women.
“Why don’t you rearrange things one more time,” Const...ance said to them. “Both of you take my room, and I’ll move into Toni’s room for the night.”
“Would you?” Janet asked. Her voice was tremulous.
“No problem,” Constance said, but she wished she knew the girl better, knew how close to the edge she really was. Too close, she thought. “Let’s go up and do it.” They had to walk around Seven Kinds of Death in order to leave the room. At least, Constance thought, the best of the lot had been safe, under the eyes of sixty or more guests all evening.MoreLess
