And now I want ice cream. Mint chocolate chip in a sugar cone, to be precise. How about you? -Laura

“I’m sorry about this afternoon.” Peabody shoved in the strawberry ice cream. “I had myself all worked up. I’d kicked my own ass as many times as I could on the way back from the exam. I just needed to kick somebody else’s. And I started thinking, if you’d just called me in I wouldn’t have taken that stupid, goddamn exam.”
“You did take it. And tomorrow you’ll know the results. Now put it aside and do the job.” “I will.” She held out a spoonful of ice cream to Eve.

Butter pecan in a waffle cone
Soft serve chocolate /vanilla swirl in a sugar cone! Yum
My favorite local creamery does two flavors that I love - butter pecan and brown butter. They make their own waffle cones, too! The other local second fave does a regional flavor that I grew up with - teaberry. If you've never had it, don't let anyone tell you that it tastes like spearmint or wintergreen or any other mint, because it doesn't. If you ever had Clark's teaberry gum... that's what teaberry ice cream tastes like. 🙂
Eve to Roarke about Peabody's nerves leading to the detective's exam. It's always fun when Eve's surprised by positive emotion. -Laura

Text in a green box reads:
“I wasn’t going to blow it. I had more confidence in myself than she does. Had to. I didn’t have anything else.”
She surprised herself by smiling, looking over at him. “Then.”

I am enjoying these excerpts from books I read in the past..... A number of times its tweaked me into going back to reread the book
Love how she was able to admit this to him now!!!
Definitely going to have to reread
And we return to Imitation in Death -- when Eve returns to the hospital to talk to Marlene Cox after she emerges from a coma. I always enjoy Eve taking on people in the medical profession who take their jobs as seriously as she takes hers. -Laura

Text in red box over bars reads:
“I put her in the dead column, Laurence, just like you. But she showed us both what she’s made of. Now, I want her to know the man who did this to her has been put away. I want her to know I’m going to do that for her, and that she had a part in making it happen.”

I love how devoted Eve is to getting the answers for people who need them and she'll go up against anyone medical, murderer or anyone involved to get the answers and closure for those who need it.
Eve is so dedicated, she will do everything in her power to take down the perpetrators x
It seems Eve has a very short list of people she respects. Drs aren't automatically given a pass. Sometimes she learns they can be pretty tough. It frequently almost turns into a sparring match!
