Summary
"River was watching the shopfront across the road as if concentration could hold up his bones. The rain had the thin, needling quality London saves for January. He shivered; then he didn’t; then he did, hard enough that he had to put his coffee down in haste before it spilt. His skin had that too-bright sheen she remembered from other winters. Min, after a long night. Herself, once, unpleasantly. Fever."
Rainy stakeout turns fever spiral: Louisa drags stubborn River home and keeps vigil until the fever finally breaks.Bookmarked by Brightflame

Summary
"Wow, there’s a really big gender discrepancy here,” Shirley squinted at the website, disapproving, “Maybe they should start running diversity schemes to get women into international crime.”
River blinked at her, “That’s your takeaway from ending up on Interpol’s most wanted list? Really?”
She shrugged, "Someone's got to advocate for women in crime. It sure as hell isn't going to be your piece of shit father."My River and Shirley friendship thesis which got out of hand; in which Patrice survives, frames River and Shirley for mass murder, and the slow horses have to untangle the web Frank Harkness has left behind.
