'Well - hope of being set free.’ 'Now why would they want to do that, Sir?’ she said. 'A murderess is not an everyday thing. As for my hopes, I save that for smaller matters. I live in hopes of having a better breakfast tomorrow than I had today.’ She smiled a little. 'They said at the time that they were making an example of me. That’s why it was the death sentence, and then the life sentence.’

But what does an example do, afterwards? thought Simon.
