“People do not play this game to win, my dear. They play this game not to lose.”
Amanda Foody, Ace of Shades

“She was the girl who’d come afraid to the city that could smell your fear. She’d faced the witch. She’d poisoned the wolf. She’d strolled into the land of death with her head held high and left it a lord. She was an impossible player in a fixed game, the only person not playing to win.”
Amanda Foody, Ace of Shades

“Now, as she held her breath and desperately searched the faces of strangers around her, she felt that she was more broken than not. One exhale, one sob, and all her pieces would shatter.”
Amanda Foody, Ace of Shades
