Book Excerpt for the Day

    I couldn’t take it anymore.  “Hey, people.  Chat time is over.  The girl’s about to pass out on her feet.  Thomas is dying.  So both of you shut your mouth and help them.”

    Raith whipped his head around to stare daggers at me.  His voice was cold enough to merit the use of a Kelvin scale.  “I do not respond well to demands.”

    I ground my teeth and said, “Both of you shut your mouth and help them.  Please.”

    And they say I can’t be diplomatic.
