Oh, right, that explains what gives with the mark all over the place. But...we're still no closer to knowing what's in the will. Are we going to find that out at all? Somehow, I have my doubts, but we do have one more session to find that out, as we close out the book - and the year - tomorrow.

So, whilst we still haven't seen the contents of the will, we have become somewhat aware of a particular symbol and its prominence. There also seems to be some connection to a play which itself has connection to the history of postal services...? Err, OK then.

Alright then, we're starting off strong here. We're yet to read anything about the actual contents of the will that Maas is supposed to be the executor of, but I suppose we'll find out soon enough. That said, I can already tell this is going to be a silly book. Whether I'll enjoy it for that, we'll have to wait and find out.
