Ryder was used to dealing with angry people, especially when the brunt of their anger was directed at him; but a woman who barely even reached his shoulder and had a little girl in her arms was something else entirely. He raised his eyebrows, glancing briefly at the child when she coughed before settling his gaze on who he presumed was the mother.
