Summary
An elevation neither of them can see the end of, swinging and loose-limbed at the precipice. It retrocedes as the cuckoo clock brandishes its needlepoint hands like akimbo rapiers. And they're scared half to death. And they're there, casing fog with whale eyes, wondering if it drops further, not taking that crucial step back, not taking that stupid step forward, because there's nowhere else to be than where they stand, because it promises a taste of what is to come, because they want to be ready, as ready as anybody could be.
Because they want to matter today, wherein the grand scheme — little does.
Or, Ana Amari is markedly old and grapples with the meaningless nature of that.
Or, Hana Song is markedly young and grapples with the meaningless nature of that.

Summary
Facing down the press junket for his book, Daniel Molloy is prepared to hype up his hit novel. He's less prepared to have Armand crash the tour to play bodyguard and doting assistant and he's definitely not ready to have his secrets spilled on a world stage because Armand wants to play games.
The longer he sticks around to torment Daniel as he chases him across the country, the longer he stays. So, who's really winning this game?

Summary
As soon as Aubrey Thyme, psychotherapist, had opened her office door and seen her new client, Anthony J. Crowley, sitting in her waiting area, she was observing and assessing him. At first glance, she paid attention to the following:
--His clothing was expensive and stylish;
--He wore very strange but noticeable cologne;
--His relationship to the seat he occupied could only, very loosely, be described as “sitting;”
--He looked angry;
--He was wearing sunglasses.What Aubrey Thyme, a professional, thought, upon first seeing her new client was: you’re going to be a fun one, aren’t you?

And then keeps coming back on Thursdays. He doesn’t seem to have much choice in the matter, actually. For the rest of the week, he’s stuck in the Empty, and Dean is left trying to figure out how to save him, how to talk to him—and how to get him out for good.
