The following quote is from “A Plague of Zombies,” in Seven Stones to Stand or Fall by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 2011 by Diana Gabaldon, all rights reserved.

“Tom sighed and shook his head but reached into his shirt and drew out a small cross, woven of wheat stalks and somewhat battered, suspended on a bit of leather string.
‘All right, me lord. But you’ll wear this, at least.’
‘What is it?’
‘A charm, me lord. Ilsa gave it to me, in Germany. She said it would protect me against evil—and so it has.’
‘Oh, no, Tom—surely you must keep—‘
Mouth set in an expression of obstinacy that Grey knew well, Tom leaned forward and put the leather string over Grey’s head. The mouth relaxed.
‘There, me lord. Now I can sleep, at least.’”
