The quotation marks must be before the word “Have” and after the word “sir” and since this is in question form, a question mark must also be placed after the word sir and before the quotation mark. This is quoted because this is a verbatim question of the subject. The rest are descriptions of person asking the question. No quotation must be put at end of the sentence. All in all, the sentence is:</span> “Have you no shame sir?” he said, his eyes narrowing.
