Lay Her Among the Lilies Quotes

“My desk clock told me it was five past ten, early for a drink, although I wanted one. After a little hesitation, I decided the bottle wouldn't know it was too early, hoisted it out of the desk drawer and gave myself a small, rather shamefaced nip.”
― James Hadley Chase, Lay Her Among the Lilies

“rather like a tired ghost after a long and exhausting spell of haunting.”
― James Hadley Chase, Lay Her among the Lilies
