Lindsay Faye’s The Fatal Flame (5)

As I read my Kindle, I highlight intriguing or beautifully descriptive passages from the novel. Here are a few recent:

“Holding your tongue by nearly biting it off isn’t pleasant, but I prevented making a further ass of myself.”

“Tiny holes dotted his heart and his mind
as if they’d suffered an infestation of moths.”

“A very prominent hooked nose was just then directing his gaze
to me as if he were looking down a rifle site.”

If you’ve not read any Lindsay Faye, I’d recommend her work! Smart and beautifully descriptive mysteries. Check her out in goodreads.
