presented on France Book Tours

Click on the book cover to know more about the book
Inside the office, a squirrelly fellow with coppery hair –the lieutenant governor, I imagined– was scribbling on some papers and pursing his lips thoughtfully. No doubt he was keeping me waiting to impress upon me the significance of his position, so I looked around and waited for him to get tired of his own importance.

Your Friday 56 excerpt made me want to know why the character is waiting outside the lieutenant governor’s office. Good choice!
