Death Through The Looking Glass (2016) - Plot & Excerpts
As if by mutual agreement, the children appeared along the walk and moved toward the patiently waiting Rocco, positioned in the center of the street. The little girls moved in small, serious clusters, while the boys hung back, engaged in the conspiratorial formation of secret clubs that would engulf them for the summer. Rocco raised his hands to stop traffic. As they moved across the street, some of the boys took furtive glances up at the towering police officer with the revolver strapped to his hip. There was a low tap on the car window, and Lyon turned to look into a wooden salad bowl that was thrust under his nose. Several coins and two rumpled bills lay in the hollow of the bowl. He looked up at the two white-robed figures with begging bowls, standing obsequiously by the car. “For the Kingdom of the Blossom, sir. A contribution assures you of a place by His right hand.” Although an exact determination was difficult because of their robes and the fact that the man had had his head shaved and the girl was turbaned, he placed them at about Robin’s age.
