1000 Characters, 15: Linda Ronstadt:

Linda Ronstadt had been cheated, mistreated, put down, and pushed 'round, she sang as her song played quietly and a bit tinnily and flat thru the aging hospital system. 

Linda Ronstadt had been made blue, lied to, cheated and mistreated, her voice sadly but defiantly let anyone who was in the hospital know. 

Linda Ronstadt was not, technically, supposed to be playing over the hospital music system at all, since the system was licensed only for Muzak-ed versions of songs. 

Linda Ronstadt didn't know that, of course, any more than she knew when she would be loved.  Also, Linda didn't know her song playing was a signal that the time had arrived for Marjorie to inject the target with the drug that would kill him. 

Marjorie would have known that last one, but she'd accidentally jabbed herself with that drug when a man fleeing the emergency room chased by a woman ran smack into her. 

The drug practically broke Marjorie's heart in two.

Born without a trace of magic, Tamsin Lark is no match for the sorceresses and Hollowers who populate the magical underground of Boston. But when the only parent she’s ever known disappears without so much as a goodbye, she has no choice but to join in their cutthroat pursuit of enchanted relics to keep herself—and her brother, Cabell—alive.

Ten years later, rumors are swirling that her guardian found a powerful ring from Arthurian legend just before he vanished. A run-in with her rival Emrys ignites Tamsin’s hope that the ring could free Cabell from a curse that threatens both of them. But they aren’t the only ones who covet the ring.

As word spreads, greedy Hollowers start circling, and many would kill to have it for themselves. While Emrys is the last person Tamsin would choose to partner with, she needs all the help she can get to edge out her competitors in the race for the ring.
