EXCERPT:


“Why don’t I stop you right there.” Cassie placed a cautionary finger on Griffin’s lips. “Are you trying to tell me you love me?”

“Yes, thank you!” He beamed with obvious relief. “You’ve hit upon the very conversational precipice I was inching towards.”

Cassie laughed. “That’s not news. I care about you too.”

“You do?” He searched her face eagerly.

“Absolutely.” She gave his hands a reassuring squeeze. “Everybody at the Arkana matters to me—Faye and Maddie and Zach and Hannah and maybe even Erik, a little. But you most of all.”

Griffin sighed. “No, love. You don’t understand.”

She blinked at his choice of words.

“What I’m trying to say is that I’m in—”

“Hey, stop dragging your feet!” Maddie’s voice bellowed from the porch. “We’re all waiting for you!” She gave the door several thumps with her fist for emphasis.

“On our way,” the Pythia called out. Turning to Griffin, she said, “Hold onto that thought, whatever it is. We’ll have plenty of time to talk when we get back home.”

 “Right! Brilliant! All the time in the world to get our relationship sorted out,” the Scrivener remarked bleakly as he followed her to the waiting helicopter. “Assuming this isn’t our last day on earth.”

    1. That's a tough call. I guess The Fall Of White City works best as a standalone. It's a murder mystery set against the backdrop of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.
