Graveyard Girl - Hardcover

"Tears ain't my problem. Eli Mahoney don't cry." He jammed his hands hard into his pants pockets. He could feel her looking at him. He wished she were a boy. He would fight any boy who made him feel so uncomfortable.

"You don't cry Eli Mahoney?" Her face suddenly looked very sad. "You don't cry. What a pity." She turned and walked away then. "I need the list," she called to Victor. "Any unknown bodies this time?" Eli stood very still and watched the Graveyard Girl cross the grass. He wanted to dislike her but there was something about her, something that beat against the wall he was working to build around himself.
