Quotes from the Book

She lied, sir. She has always lied. I don't think she ever spoke a word of truth. But when she spoke, I believed her.
She had a strange, wild beauty, a face that was disconcerting at first, but unforgettable. Her eyes in particular had an expression, at once voluptuous and fierce, that I have never seen on any human face. 'Gypsy's eye, wolf's eye' is a phrase Spaniards apply to people with keen powers of observation.
