‘People are murdered every day,’ I say. ‘Righting one wrong can’t be the only reason for all of this.’
‘An excellent point,’ he says, clapping his hands together in appreciation. ‘But who’s to say there aren’t hundreds of others like yourself seeking justice for those souls?’
‘Are there?’
‘Doubtful, but it’s a lovely thought, isn’t it?’

Memory will murder her.
I love this last line.

A flicker of affection stirs within me, the remnants of some stronger emotion reduced to embers.

‘You have to keep hold of yourself. Don’t give in to him.’
‘How do I do that when I don’t know where they start and I begin?’
‘If you weren’t here, Derby would have his hands all over me,’ she says. ‘That’s how you know who you are. You don’t just remember it, you do it, and you keep doing it.’

‘You’ve been talking to Dickie,’ I say absently, still thinking about Davies.
‘Been talked at more like,’ she scoffs. ‘Thirty minutes I spent trying to keep my eyes off that moustache. I’m surprised sound can penetrate it.’
That makes me laugh.

I humiliated him and he handed back an equal weight of that misery, using nothing more than patience. What man wouldn’t be charmed by such a feat?
‘You’re not angry?’ he asks.
‘I suspect my anger is of little concern to you,’ I say, wiping a tear from my eye. ‘Regardless, I threw the first stone. I can’t complain if a boulder comes back at me.’
My mirth prompts an echoing smile in my companion.
