    Summary

    “So has he taken your case then?”

    “Case?” Sloane felt utterly lost.

    “Well, it’s just that most of the people he sees rush out of here in tears or fury, and you look rather… well. I take it he’s accepted your case?” The man gestured up the stairs. “It must be a good one if it’s got him interested. He’s been picky about them for weeks,” he added, more to himself than to her.

    “Pardon me, but I think there’s been a misunderstanding,” she said. “I live here.”

     

    Sloane Worth is a young academic who moves to London for a change of scenery. After making friends with the doctor and detective upstairs, she gets swept up in their world of crime and mystery. Her talent for reading people as well as she reads books could rival the detectives' own, and soon she finds herself trying to untangle more than a web of crime but her heart strings as well.

    Scene one takes place just before the blind banker.

    Summary

    "GREAT! Just great! As if this could GET any better!" Zanka bites out, seething. Of course he's stuck here, injured, in a damp, dirty cell, and of course he's stuck here with fucking Jabber of all people.

    Jabber whistles appreciatively, "Man, you're in a mood today. Wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" and cackles at his own joke. Zanka's gonna strangle him. He's gonna rip out those bars with his bare hands and use them to beat Jabber to death.

    or

    Zanka is taken by some people who want to study givers. Jabber is there too. This somehow makes everything both better and so much worse.

    Summary

    Zanka runs into a familiar face whilst on break in Canvas Town. Something is inherently wrong.

    “But Zankaaaa…”
    “OFFA ME!”
    The second Jabber would’ve let go, Zanka could make a mad dash for the alley behind him. That was the plan.
    He watched in anticipation as Jabber reluctantly unwound his hands from Zanka’s ankle. Jabber’s hands. His bare hands? Bare fingers? What—
    “Where’s Mankira?”
