“I decided to become a policeman to speak for the dead. They have no one else, you see. Somewhere there’s always proof of what happened, some piece of evidence that will obtain a conviction. It’s important for the guilty to be brought to justice, I think. Without justice, there’s chaos.”
Charles Todd, A Long Shadow

“Revenge was personal as a rule. Otherwise it was pointless.”
Charles Todd, A Long Shadow

“Children were quick to grasp the subtleties of emotions around them, to see through evasions and quickly identify prevarication.”
Charles Todd, A Long Shadow
