World of Trouble: The Last Policeman Book III - Ben H. Winters

 

Hey! Hey!

It’s my lucky day!

Another whiner!

 

Henry started out so nicely.

 

Book 1 was mostly just doing his job:

It’s the end of the world and we know it, and i feel fine.

 

Book 2 kinda morphed into

I’ll be your candle on the water

or maybe

You’re the wind beneath my wings

Depending on if you think about him or the lady who asked him to find her missing husband.

 

Now?

He’s trying to find his sister.

He’s whining.

Everything is his fault.

Even though he wasn’t even there.

 

His flaky sister went all conspiracy and took off , she asked him to come with her even though he’s half bled out from a gunshot wound to the artery in the upper arm. She apparently didn’t care that he’ll die if they don’t get him to a hospital.

His fault - he left her.

 

The nutty chick in the abandoned clothing store.

His fault because he was there a couple weeks before looking for info and the asshole running the place abandoned her.

  

Girl in a clearing with her throat sliced.

His fault because he wasn't there earlier to prevent it.

 

I can blame him for the dog being injured (a feisty little bichon friese) since he should have left it behind, but come on.
