"Harry's Quest" - hard-boiled, noir and sexy - some quotes to tease you! Part 4

Harry's Quest went live as an ebook yesterday, and the paperback version will be available next week.
So here is Part 4 of some quotes for your enjoyment.

Classic hard-boiled Harry:

‘Mate, given that I don’t imagine there’s ever been a lusty woman spreadeagled on that sling, again, my adventurism all remains firmly elsewhere.’  P259

‘I rang the local cops, but for a missing gay lover they showed as much interest as a politician in an ethics class.’   P244

‘That’s arrogance, mate. Seen it plenty of times with these politicians and bureaucrat fat cats. They think they’re entitled, better than the rest of us, and entirely untouchable.’   P278

He cupped her snow-white breasts in his hands as if they were precious ornaments made of alabaster.   P291

Harry sat there staring at the door. He looked down at his bottom drawer where Brother Jameson dwelt. No, you don’t need one, he thought. He lit a smoke. He looked back at the bottom drawer. Yes, I bloody do. ‘Fuck it,’ he said out loud.   P325
