There was a cafe on the way from the station which served hot drinks metal furniture and served omelettes with a cornucopia of tasty fillings which he couls gladly eat every day but he liked to vary his routine because he preferred anonymity to the familiarity of the staff on his umpteenth return.

Night Manager - there is a lot of local colour, visual description of the lifestyle, clothing prep, breakfast, travel to restaurant before the big inciting incident. How to personalise all this, deliver it novelistically but in character, like KA/AC/Flashman on the cruise etc

You need to watch your speed on those roads. Not because they are perilous which they are but familiarity teaches you every but the drivers round here are similarly inclined towards familiarity-based recklessness which, not to put too fine a point on it, is a phenomenon that I have been guilt of in too many a relationship.

Not going to make that mistake again. Not now I have Alicja.

He was what the writers I was forced to read at school would describe as "rotund" which in my book meant he wasn't going to be smashing the Iron Man challenge any time soon. He moved from door to table to chair the way cumulonimbi do, without any rush or sense he was running to keep up with the world and his air of all business set my antennae twinging. Here was a man not to be underestimated.
"Drink?"

Giles is under pressure, running low on tin, his mistress is strongly indicating she's a lot less interested in him and he has superhero fantasies, wet dream of every ex-politician not to have to slum it in reality TV but to be inducted into a secret cabal of monied lizard VIPs. It's also strongly hinted that he did a deal with the devil to get where he's gone. Chinn-esque, hugely demoted in status, consumed by his petty obsessions, minor royalty, his competitor. Obsequious to those in power.

"What are you doing here?"
He scowled and looked at me from under caterpillar eyebrows. "I got a mortgage, I needed the dough."
"But you hate this place."
"It's a vortex of venality and posturing mediocrities. Let it burn."
