“It brings me peace to know that it all began with crime fiction as a child, and that it is there, after a thousand detours, that I have landed again. As a child I found peace in crime novels, and it is with them that I find peace today. There has been some turbulence along the way, but I wouldn’t have avoided any of it. I wouldn’t have reached the place I have without all of it happening.”
― Sara Blaedel

“Heaven doesn’t want me, and hell’s afraid I’ll take over.”
― John Langan, The Fisherman
