Enigma

“With every year that I grow older, I also draw closer to (my loved ones) to the day when we will once again be together. So I march through the deepening shadows, serene and unafraid, because I know that at the end of my journey they will be waiting for me.”
― Tess Gerritsen, The Silent Girl

“God, it's like reality's completely shifted on me. I used to think I was standing on such solid ground. If I wanted something badly enough, I just worked like hell for it. Now I can't decide what to do, which move to make. All the things I counted on aren't there for me anymore.”
― Tess Gerritsen, Harvest

“Sometimes, the person who could make you happiest is the one who waits patiently in the wings.”
― Tess Gerritsen, Rizzoli & Isles Series Collection: The Surgeon, The Apprentice, The Sinner, Body Double, Vanish, The Mephisto Club, Keeping the Dead and The Killing Place

“The dead do not hurt you; only the living do.”
― Tess Gerritsen, The Sinner
