Quotation from: Secret Adversary

Written by: Agatha Christie


"Get up, you little idiot! Don't go on drivelling there. How you
ever had the nerve to play your part as you did I can't think."
She stamped her foot. "Get up, I say."


But Tuppence continued to cling and sob, interjecting her sobs
with incoherent appeals for mercy. Every minute gained was to
the good. Moreover, as she grovelled, she moved imperceptibly
nearer to her objective.


Mrs. Vandemeyer gave a sharp impatient exclamation, and jerked
the girl to her knees.
