Here are a few sentences from a WIP
A young thief, Ethan James, gets more than he bargained for after stealing a priceless relic. He is forced to work with Ash Stephanos, an expert on Egyptian antiquities, to free himself from the grasp of a vindictive ancient God.
A young thief, Ethan James, gets more than he bargained for after stealing a priceless relic. He is forced to work with Ash Stephanos, an expert on Egyptian antiquities, to free himself from the grasp of a vindictive ancient God.
Ash offered Ethan a lucrative job, to steal a priceless artifact from the British Museum.
Ethan found Manny in his study.
“How’d it go with your Greek?” Manny peered at him over the
top of his half specs
Ethan pulled up the spare chair and propped his feet up on the
table. “He’s not my Greek.”
“If you say so." Manny grinned.
“I told him I wouldn’t do it.” Ethan picked up the sword shaped
letter opener and cleaned the dirt from under his fingernails.
“I already passed it off to Reddich.”
Ethan’s feet hit the wooden floor with a thud. “What the hell
did you do that for? I wouldn’t trust him to find his dick let alone with a job this size.”
“Stephanos is determined and I knew you wouldn’t touch it so—”
Ethan cut Manny off mid flow. “Please tell me that fools not
thinking of taking Ash with him?”
“Ash? On first name terms are we? Manny’s eyebrow hiked into his hairline. “Stephanos is
putting up good money. It makes sense, especially in today’s climate.”
“I don’t give a damn what he’s offering, tell Reddich to back
off and I’ll sort Stephanos out.”
Oh, I'm sure *nothing* will go wrong at all.
