There aren't any excerpts on the site, which I find confusing. Excerpts sell books. Very few people will buy a book from an author they don't know and a publisher they don't know when they can't even read a short sample. Anything could be in that file.

If they want to sell books they really ought to put excerpts up, because readers have said time and time again that they won't buy books without excerpts.

Then he looked up with a crease of a wry smile crossing his thin, course jaw.

The element of embarrassment became facially obvious and the way I had announced it during the drunken gaiety of that particular evening flooded a still sluggish memory.

Edwards took a glance my way and his eyes locked onto mine in a deep, searching lull. His moderate alto drawl shattered the measured silence when he obligingly uttered, "We're about to find out, my friend. The signal to activate has just been given.”

This was the abyss I was about to ascend into.

I descended into what must have been the third class passenger's open space which was designated the area aboard ship reserved for the steerage passenger’s recreational activities.
