Once before, Jerott had seen him like that, in Algiers. He had seen him as he was now, with every skill of mind and body tuned to the ultimate pitch in pursuit of one object. Francis Crawford like that was uncontrollable and very close to invincible. But not invincible. And not impervious to the reckoning afterwards.

The people who can destroy a thing, they control it.

My dad was very fun and very adventurous, and from a formative age I learned to value men who would do things on a whim.

Oh, sometimes I like to put the sand of doubt into the oyster of my faith." (Br. Cadfael)
