I confess I'm running a little late in recording my reading of this book as I've very nearly finished it - but on the better late then never principle, and as something a little extra than normal:
Opening Lines:
"I want you to steal something for me."
and page 123 - the first few sentences which by happy co-incidence is the start of chapter twenty:
"Later that night, after Van Zandt had finally grown tired of droning on about the wonders of his family's business empire, I let myself back into my apartment and drew myself a bath. Once the water was hot enough to scald flesh, I added a little cold and then I climbed into the tub and lay flat amid the streaming water, staring blankly at the white bathroom tiles on the opposite wall."
