In Mamzelle's boudoir, the madam and the cat were still embroiled in their murderous heart-to-heart. "But I do not understand, chéri," she said. "Why would you not wish me to keel your master?"
"Two reasons," Misi answered loftily. "For one, I can't reciprocate. You'd have to maneuver your master into a situation where he became a direct threat to my master."
Mamzelle laughed. "You underestimate me."
"Oh, I doubt that. But for me the more important reason is the second. If anyone kills my master, it's going to be me," he growled. "I've been plotting it for eight years, and no one is going to deny me that pleasure."

It’s funny how little things, innocuous in and of themselves, can prove to be big mistakes. You don’t even realize there’s a problem until it’s blowing up in your face. In hindsight, you can say “Oh, yeah, I shouldn’t have done that, I should have seen that coming,” but what’s obvious on reflection doesn’t jump out at you in those first moments. Otherwise, people wouldn’t make mistakes.

Diggory Franklin has had an interesting time lately. He's fallen in love with the same woman twice, dealt with time-travelling terrorists and the federal agencies chasing them, lost both his parents and put his best friend into rehab. Lately, he's been worried that his memory and sanity aren't quite intact.
As if the last few months of his life weren't crazy enough, Diggory is about to have one very bad day. Read on and see what happens in Book 6: The Not So Great Bank Robbery.
Edie was not looking forward to working on the project for Jasmine. True, she was glad that she got to work with Corrie and Annie, but she couldn't think of any other aspect of the project that she liked. Troy had seemed nice and helpful at first, but had freaked out at them, and she didn't know if things were ever going to relax between him and the rest of the group. She was interested in the mystery of his apparent illusion, but if it never got solved she didn't think she would mind, as long as they were able to get the project done without any fights.

I did not emerge from the shadow state until we were back in my rooms. Valerius would have men in the city, and though they would be able to track a man I doubted they could track a shadow.
Antonius collapsed to the floor gasping and gagging when I released him from the shadow. I simply walked from the room and called for a slave to assist me; it had been a long journey back. Once I had fed, I returned to see Antonius’ progress. The shadow state was meant only for one, there was no air to breathe and no way to move; Antonius had been trapped.

Anilitak waited as patiently as she could, vaguely anxious, listening for some hint of her surroundings. She sat without searching for a chair. She had yet to hear mention of a chair or any piece of furniture. Perhaps such craft was lost to these blind men. Everything here seemed barren and dead, as if built not for bodies, but for voices.

The solid planks of the quay that jutted out from the city of Kaldor Harbor felt good beneath Kilthanis’s feet. While the two day journey from Caranth had been smoother than his voyage on the Great Southern Ocean, he was quite firmly convinced that he was a landlubber. The only dismaying part about his arrival in Osh’riyo was that he knew he’d be leaving the island all too soon. That was the problem with islands, Kilthanis decided.

To Corrie's surprise, Duncan was the one who raised his hand. "Go ahead," she said to him.
He cleared his throat. "Do you really need me to be the treasurer?"
