    Summary

    “No more doctor’s appointments,” he says to Armand, who’s perched in one of Daniel’s squashy armchairs, scrolling listlessly on his iPad. “But maybe we should book you in with one. When’s the last time you had a prostate exam?”

    “Ha,” says Armand, without looking up. “Why, are you offering?”

    Or: when Daniel gets turned into a vampire, Armand gets turned back into a human. It’s not going well.

    Summary

    "I know I might look naive to you, but I am an adult in my own right," said Rashid as he ashed his cigarette over the balcony railing. His voice was as soft as silk.

    The bony part of his wrist peaked between the leather glove and the long sleeve of his shirt, so delicate and pretty that Daniel wondered if a strong enough gust of wind could snap it in half. Or maybe a hard grip would do the trick. "Mr. Du Lac is not my keeper. I do not need his permission to seek my own pleasure."

    "So you try to fuck all your bosses' guests?"

    Rashid shook his head. "No, only you."

     

    — An alternative universe in which two-time Pulitzer winning, retired reporter and journalist Daniel Molloy embarks on a very ill-advised affair with the help.

    Summary

    By the time Rust met Marty, he hadn’t said his own name in ten months.

    Longer than that since anyone had called him Rust. Morales, always precise, called him Cohle, or sometimes Officer Cohle, like Rust needed a reminder of which side of the line he was on: Rust had appreciated that. To everyone since Morales he had only been Crash.

    Only two people had ever called him Rust. He didn’t like how easily Marty slipped into the number three spot, like it was waiting for him.
