Quote
“‘Should I carry him?’ asked Gamache, feeling badly because he hadn’t remembered that the biting snow could burn a dog’s paw. Now he remembered last winter struggling to carry old Sonny the 3 blocks home when his feet couldn’t take the cold any more. It had broken both their hearts. And he remembered hugging Sonny to him a few months later when the vet came to put him to sleep. And he remembered saying soothing things into the stinky old ears & looking into the weepy brown eyes as they closed, with one final thump of the ragged, beloved, tail. And as he felt the final beat of Sonny’s heart, Gamache had had the impression it wasn’t that his old heart had stopped but that Sonny had finally given it all away.”
