halfway there!

Also, interesting to bring up the play Alcestis. Feels on the nose. Rather, I prefer the subtlety interwoven from the first chapter. The deep reader knows the connection (or atleast I did since I looked up the play and can tell it was heading to a tragedy).

getting interesting.

My question is, why is Theo continuing to act as a detective? Talking to her gallerist, Jean-Felix, was fine. But questioning the neighbor, trying to piece together what happened the night of the murder? Side-eye. Feels like he has a personal stake in this.

Tom's playing detective again.

When talking about Alcestis, I finally was able to connect the dots between the play and Alicia's vow of silence. Very interesting. Her husband was murdered, but she betrayed. Based on the context of the play, looks like a similar situation ensued. Her husband chose his own life over hers.
Last chapter with Theo doing something he shouldn't. I have to raise my eyebrow.

Interesting so far.
Found a grammatical error in the book!
[spoiler]
Sounds like Jean-Felix doesn't like Gabriel. And the other way around too. Seems like Alicia puts Gabriel on a pedestal.
