Quote by Stephen Spotswood

“Do you think all these people actually buy into his whole obsession, or do they just want to rub elbows with his money?" "Part of it is certainly Quincannon's wealth. He has been known to make or break political candidates. But I'm sure part of it is that they simply enjoy the topic of murder." Which didn't exactly put me at ease. I mean, yeah, it was one of our frequent topics, as well. But when we discussed murder, it was more like a pair of exterminators talking cockroaches. This crew were writing the vermin fan mail.”

“My Name Once when the lawn was a golden green and the marbled moonlit trees rose like fresh memorials in the scented air, and the whole countryside pulsed with the chirr and murmur of insects, I lay in the grass, feeling the great distances open above me, and wondered what I would become and where I would find myself, and though I barely existed, I felt for an instant that the vast star-clustered sky was mine, and I heard my name as if for the first time, heard it the way one hears the wind or the rain, but faint and far off as though it belonged not to me but to the silence from which it had come and to which it would go.”

“She would hate him even more if she knew all the depraved things he’d done. The fantasies, the stalking, the fucking obsession. That he had used her shampoo to jerk off and stolen her clothes, her lipstick. That when she wasn’t around, he had sometimes lain in her bed and imagined what it would be like to touch her the way she said she’d wanted to be touched in her journal. And of course, he had watched her touch herself. Every catch of her breath, every discreet rustle of fabric, every teasing glimpse of brown skin—he had seen it all, and taken it as a sign that not even Jay was immune to pleasure. And, more importantly, that he could give it to her. He could be the one to make her come.”
