Quotes by Louis Tridico (?)

“He sat in his wife's Lexus sedan, parked on Burgundy across from the Hotel St. Pierre. He dared not bring his FBI-issue Ford four-door. A third-grader could spot it as a Fedmobile.”
― Louis Tridico, The Magicians

“Did she believe she could pry some information out of a couple of slick millionaire politicians? Doubtful. These were professional liars. And they were Louisiana politicians. A particularly vile breed of dog who would lick your hand and then bite the shit out of it. Or just pee on your leg for the fun of it.”
― Louis Tridico, Redcoat
