Quotable Thursday

I finally did my Christmas shopping, so I could splurge on a new book without feeling too bad about it...And I grabbed myself a copy of Inferno by Dan Brown. Dan Brown wasted no time in this book; Robert Langdon has retrograde amnesia; he can't remember why he is in Italy, when he arrived, or why he has a gunshot wound to the head. So this is probably the fastest paced mystery in the series....

She ran a hand through her spiked hair, suddenly grasping the dire consequences of her botched assignment last night. With the single coo of a dove, everything had spiraled wildly out of control. What had begun as a simple mission... had now turned into a living nightmare.

...That quote is by a character called Vayentha; she's is just one of many people who seem to want Robert Langdon dead.
