How will this book conclude??

Did not anticipate that? Who has survived??

I hope Da stays safe.

ROSS has the solution? I suppose that shouldn’t be surprising, but I can’t guess.

I hope Ross lives.

Fosse & Braddock have a similarity in tone, a pervasive disgust and an odd sluggishness. Fosse is so long-winded! I think I’d just have thrown Gus letter away without finishing it. He’s a very dull, though bloodthirsty, individual. You could drive him nuts merely by excreting outside his front door. I think Braddock needs a detox and to cut out refined sugar.

Well, the chapter title did hint.

He’s not getting Da!

I don’t know if Jedediah will survive.

I think he will die soon.

I think Ross only has one thing to live for now. I wonder if Fosse will have a stroke. Why wouldn’t Botha kill Wattana? I don’t think Ross is delusional. Time isn’t linear.

Could she survive this?

I did not expect that death! The mind is designed to perceive patterns, whether relevant or not.

Go on, Jedediah, finish him.

I have misgivings about Ross. I want him to be okay, but the vibes aren’t good. I want Fosse to die, but I also have misgivings about Wattana. I’m not sure she’s up to the job. I like Anneke, even though she comes across as somewhat predatory. David has a disturbing way of not taking good enough care of himself that makes me expect him to injure himself.

I don’t think Ross will survive.

I think she might die.

Die, you horrible man.

Not sure if I’ve encountered Estela before.

I want him busted & killed.

Fosse isn’t likeable at all. The nameless driver is more intriguing and seems to be made of firmer stuff.

But is it really going to plan?

So they’re onto the horrible man!

I’m not sure Wattana will be particularly “grateful” for Fosse’s help.

Jim sounds repulsive. Lopez is a strange character.

Back in my preferred part of the world, with a very unpleasant character.
