Quote preview background for Louise Penny
As the boys screamed and hauled off handfuls of mulch, Olivier had slowly, deliberately, gently taken Gabri__ hand and held it before gracefully lifting it to his lips. The boys had watched, momentarily stunned, as Olivier had kissed Gabri__ manure-stained hand with his manure-stained lips. The boys had seemed petrified by this act of love and defiance. But just for a moment. Their hatred triumphed and soon their attack had re-doubled.
