Teaser Tuesday #218

Ed ecco di nuovo la rubrica settimanale Teaser Tuesday, creata dal blog Should Be Reading, che si divide in poche, semplici fasi:
1_ prendi il libro che stai leggendo
2_ apri una pagina a caso
3_ scrivi un breve brano (stando attenti a non spoilerare)
4_ scrivi titolo e autore

A woman sits in her hotel room, hugging her pillows to her chest, and cries - she cries - like a fucking six year old.
Hope Arden get your fucking act together!
No good.
Hope Arden - the woman who was Hope Arden, before Hope Arden became no more than a blip in a digital record, a carbon footprint - this woman, sits now in a grey room in a grey hotel beneath a grey sky, and cries.
I want Luca Evard here to hold me, I want Gaugain staring in surprise, I want my mum who crossed the desert, my dad who told me never to turn to crime. I want Parker from New York, the one I can't remember; Byron14, I want Reina bint Badr al Mustakfi, I want
 someone
 to say my name.
Gaugain didn't even remember me long enough to chase after me when I fled from his sight.
Filippa will not remember eating noodles with me.
I am dead in all but dead.
My deeds are worthless.
 - The sudden appearance of Hope, Claire North
