Catalyst (A Grace Murphy Novella) - Plot & Excerpts
"You realize that it's a trap." He flicked his wrist and the page sailed gracefully onto the table top. "Of course it's a trap. What else would it be? It's like a bad spy novel plot. The villain invites the dashing hero to a fancy dinner. There will be drinking, dancing, a slinky black dress and then a bad monologue where said bad guy threatens the world. I've seen the movies. I'm not interested in going to a real life Cos-play." I strode to the window and peered out the drapes. The park was still lit up like a Christmas tree and I lost myself in the glow. I always did like blinky lights. "You're not curious about what this could be? You've never wanted to dine at the exclusive restaurant?" I turned and rolled my eyes. "Of course I have and I am. But I'm here for the kid's birthday. I've already gotten into one fight. Isn't that one enough adventure for a vacation?" He smirked. "Obviously not." "Do you think she's out to finish what she started?" I asked, thinking that my getaway from Medusa had been entirely too easy.
