Adam and Tiffy

It’s a theme, people.

I was on the train this morning reading Prince of Fire. The gentleman sitting next to me asked, “Oh, is that the new one?” Yes, I said. It just came out last week. “How is it? I really like this series and started reading it when The Kill Artist came out.” It’s good, I say. I gloat about the signed copy. “How did you get that?!” The author was in Chester County just last week. “!@#$%, I wish I’d known! I live right near there!” Plug the web site. Express sympathy. Maybe next year.
