The Coffin Dancer / The Empty Chair / The Stone Monkey Quotes

“They were the hopeful. Who were trading homes and family and a thousand years of ancestry for the hard certainty of risky, laborious years ahead of them. Who had the slimmest of chances to take root in a place where their families could prosper, where freedom and money and contentment were, the story went, as common as sunlight and rain.”
― Jeffery Deaver, The Coffin Dancer / The Empty Chair / The Stone Monkey
