Better update to come tomorrow.
Excerpt:
“Ah.” Olive shrugged her shoulders. “Was she supposed to fall from a great height?”
I nodded sadly, my head bowed on my neck.
“Was she supposed to die?”
I nodded again.
“Mhmm. Slight problem.”
“Really? You don’t say.”
“She’s not dead.”
"I can see that.”
There was a silence between us as we watched a number of people file out of the rooms across the way from the green where Queenie had landed, and I watched my plans for her death fizzle out with the presentation of a cold compress for her head and an icepack for her badly damaged arm.
How could this have happened? Twice?
“Fuck,” I muttered bitterly, bringing my thumbnail to my mouth in annoyance. “Why won’t she just die?”

“Maybe we should try somebody else?”
“Aw hell.” I pinched the bridge of my nose. “Maybe we should.”
