From the cover:
They say what the river takes never returns. They are wrong.
Quote:
The hours crawl by…. For me, it’s nothing. I have waited years….
Then the sun makes its slow way below the horizon. Even in the glow of electric light, I can feel the night’s approach. The dead aren’t meant for daylight. I’m more awake in darkness. Not more alive – it’s a fallacy to suppose I could become less dead. But I am different in the dark. More powerful.
