”What’s taking your friends,”
Filipov asked for the hundredth time.
“They keep on stalling.”
To his surprise, the man’s

“You complain of the silence
of my friends?”
“Right, exactly.”
“In that case, I apologize on
their behalf. But let me assure you
that, when the time comes, they will be delighted to meet you. Although I fear that, on the off chance you
survive the encounter, you’ll wish you hadn’t met them.”

Chamber by Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child)
