XMurdoch: Don't mean to do nothin' about him yet. I killed everybody was wishin' me dead, I'd be to my ears in blood and have three times the enemies. That all you come 'round for?
Rafe: Well... can I ask you something?
Murdoch: If I said no, would you stop talking?
Rafe: Say you had this girl, an' she hadn't done nothing wrong exactly, an' she never asked much... and then you had this other girl, sharper, prettier, kinda expensive, but the thing, oui? What would you do?
Murdoch: I'd do 'em a favor and dump 'em both. Too much fallout in this business. But that's not what you askin'. Alain would introduce them then lay low 'til they sorted how to share him. But that's not what you askin' either. What you askin' is how to have 'em both, keep 'em quiet, an' not face any consequences for it.
Rafe: Well, yeah. ... So how do I do that?
Murdoch: Ask the saints for a miracle.
Rafe: Does that work?
Murdoch: No. But they both just walked in, so prayin's about all you got.

Midnight Riot by Ben Aaronovitch
New-minted Constable Peter Grant has a problem. He's got exclusive eyewitness testimony of a murder -- but his witness is a ghost. And speaking with the dead is about to be the least weird thing in his life...
