So...that's it? Ho-hum.

Oh my. *blinks* Sex scenes are not a strong point of this author.

"One could go mad behind the walls without some study--people, that was my subject."

"Their virtues or their faults?"

"Their voices, who they truly were."

"He had his mother's eyes and her capacity for extremes. He was the lion in the old tale with a thorn in its paw. Wounded, trapped in anger at the world's evils, he would not find his lost brother. He could search all of London and find only injustice and pain.

She was the mouse, the partner, who could free him as he had freed her."

This isn't a deal breaker for me, but I find it rather eye roll worthy that the heroine can hear a voice once and can mimic it perfectly.

"Bringing a doxy from his bed to a family meeting about Kit's fate proved Will capable of every kind of selfish, decadent, unthinking folly."

- Is it completely wrong of me to find that statement hilarious when said meeting included their mother, a courtesan who had a child with each of her noble protectors???

"This time he'd not follow her. He had no claim on her."

- That's the most sensible thing I've hear yet.

What the hell? Maybe I was being optimistic, but I expected this book to make sense.

I find it more likely that she would have been jacked right then, but I'm willing to go with it. :)

Not quite the damsel he expected. Nice.
