Seth: "Here's what we need to do. Find a flat area, like a farm, a little bit out of the way where we can spend a little time." Seth unbuttoned his black fatigues.

Jenny: "Seth, I think we have more urgent things to think about..."

Seth: "I know." He pushed his pants down to his knees. "I want to show you something.

Jenny: "I've seen it before."

Seth: "Ha ha." Seth tugged back the leg of his boxer shorts to reveal a black band around one thigh with a circular device mounted on it. "

7 " Ashleigh’s a manipulative liar,” Jenny said. “She makes Dick Cheney look like Mr. Rogers.”

However, we do know the conditions of the world around us and its inhabitants; we know these in detail. We can only conclude, then, that we are meant to focus on this world in which we live, and not groundless speculation about the next. History shows that an obsession with the afterlife smothers our concern for the living. "

14 " You took me for a date at the zoo,
said my love left something to prove,
so I did all I knew to do,
I stole a fat rhinoceros for you!

Stolen rhino, in my car,
Stolen rhino, now love me more
Stolen rhino, I did it for you,
Stolen rhino, don't make me steal two! "

― J.L. Bryan , The Tower (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #9)

18 " What's next?" Stacey glanced down the intersecting hall at the closed door to Juniper's room, from which more harsh, angry music leaked out. Our options were to go talk to the moody teenage girl or go set up in the creepy attic where Toolie had heard strange thumps, crashes, and footsteps.
"The attic," I said. "It sounds easier than talking to the girl. "

― J.L. Bryan , Cold Shadows (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #2)
