Lisbon: Richard And Rose, Book 8 (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
“Then search. But do it quickly. He is not dead, Carier. I’d know it. Or rather, I’d know if he were dead.” My hands curled into fists. “Oh, I don’t know, I can’t explain it properly, but, Carier, he is not dead. Go and look. No, go and rest. I’ll go and look.” He opened his mouth, but I wouldn’t let him deny me this. “If he’s dead, then I need to see it, to know it. If he isn’t, I want to be there when we find him. You say it’s dangerous—I’ll carry a weapon. Several. We have men to guard me, men we can trust absolutely.” He glanced at me. “There is something else. When you were recovering, the first night after we learned you would live, he ordered me to put your life above mine.” He made a sound, a cross between a laugh and a growl. “As if I hadn’t already. You mean everything to him, ma’am.” “As if you had to tell me that,” I said, echoing his words deliberately.
