Iron Crowned (2011)
“It figured: I owed. Self-employed people always owe. It was a credit to Lara that she’d managed my books well enough that the amount was low, but after seeing her run off with my roommate, I decided it was a good thing our working relationship didn’t include performance reviews.
She’d also left me a jam-packed day, which turned out to be beneficial. A busy schedule kept my mind off Dorian (mostly) and what was transpiring in the Otherworld. I fought with ferocity, as though each ghost or monste...r I battled was Katrice herself. It was the drives in between that were the roughest on me. There was no action then. Just my own thoughts.
My last job of the day was the most difficult, undoubtedly scheduled that way on purpose so that I didn’t walk into the little ones tired and injured.

Yet, walking up to the client’s house, I couldn’t stop asking the same questions in my mind.MoreLess
