Lisa Shearin Quotes
I Knew There Was Evil In The World. Death And Taxes Were All Necessary Evils.
So Was Shopping.
"I Hate Shopping," I Muttered.
"Of Course You Do," Phaelan Said. "You're A Benares, [the Daughter Of A Long Line Of Professional Thieves]. We're Not Used To Paying For Anything." Phaelan Was My Cousin; He Called Himself A Seafaring Businessman. Law Enforcement In Every Major City Called Him "that Damned Pirate," Or Less Flattering Epithets, None Of Them Repeatable Here.
...
"Have You Considered Something In Scarlet Leather?" Phaelan Mused From Beside Me.
"Have You Considered Just Painting A Bull's Eye On My Back?" I Retorted.
My Cousin Wasn't With Me Because He Liked Shopping. He Was By My Side Because Being Within Five Feet Of Me Was A Guarantee Of Getting Into Trouble Of The Worst Kind. Phaelan Hadn't Plundered Or Pillaged Anything In Weeks. He Was Bored. So This Morning, He Was A Cocky, Swaggering Invitation For Trouble To Bring It On And Do Her Worst.
