The Amber Keeper
“I saw to the children, attended the Countess as she prepared to go out for the evening as usual, and enjoyed a welcome glass of tea with Nyanushki, served with a slice of lemon, listening with only half my attention as she talked about the children’s adventures in the park without enlightening her on my own.

‘Where have you been?’ he said.MoreLess
