"They’re harder than people think," she was saying. "Most of the spooks I've met would be bloody useless at them".
“I wouldn’t,” River said immediately, almost absently.
Shirley let out a full, barking laugh, not even bothering to take River remotely seriously - which instantly drew his attention.
"You’d suck at it, Cartwright"- - -
