Status Updates From Broken Homes (Peter Grant, #4)

"'Fuck me,' I said to Toby. ' We're living in Isengard.'"

"'Alas catnip is merely a synonym for spell, and thus my pervious answer must suffice,' said the man and glanced up at his sign."

"'She says she will go back to the Church the day it apologises,' he said."

Aww.

A Blade Runner reference!

Yap-o-meter.

"And there was a Big-Box Self-Storage next door which would be handy if the cells ever got overcrowded."

Really good so far...nice easy prose and very addictive read.

NO! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Toll, zurück in London zu sein!

the details about police work in these books feels so authentic that I look them up to read more about them and find them to hold true. yeah!

"'Or is it called tape?' he asked.
I didn't tell him that it was all stored as binary information on rapidly spinning shiny discs, partly because I'd have to look up the details myself, but mostly because by the time he'd understood the technology it would have been replaced by something else."
That's it--he is as equally self-depreciating as provoking... nice balance.

"Jaget had obviously spent some time editing the footage together because it told the story with quite a bit of unnecessary flair. You could have put it to music, something grim and German maybe,and sold it to an art gallery." Double snicker--grim and German, art gallery. Master of the snide.

"During that mess I ended up buried underground for a half a day, where I had a waking dream that still keeps me from sleeping. But that, as they say, is a whole different counselling session." Ha--they say that, do they?

"Are we forging the one ring?" I asked.

*distractable

I'm distributable with this one. it's lacking a bit of the London magic

Officer training-perfect and true. "And then role-playing in the gym where we practiced how to handle suspects without having them fall down the stairs." He doesn't mean literally. :)

series of controlled experiments on Toby. Awesome.

So we had afternoon tea and pathology

PC Slatt-nice description that doesn't contain f-ability comments.

Cop humor: And there was a Big-Box Self-Storage next door (to the detention centre) which would be handy if the cells ever got overcrowded.

I say a walk, but actually the pair of us had sloped off through the thin winter drizzle to the cafe in the park where I had coffee and Toby had cake. Gotta love a slacker dog.

Police mantra that all members of the public are guilty of something, but some members of the public are more guilty than others.

I'm really starting to like Toby the dog!
