"...there was no doubt Oliver had the control. For all that he played submissive in their sexual games..." This - Thank You.

Ha! Way back when they first shared a scene I though, "Hey, Miss Hathaway and Wilford should totally become a couple."

Oh. Well. I guess it was that neat and easy to tie up. Guys sounds schizophrenic almost with him hearing the "voice" of the angel telling him what to do.

"...in the graveyard with white stones thrusting like bony fingers from the earth." Wow, creepy simile and visual.

Odd...two books in a row mentioned something revolving around Guy Fawkes. In "The Locker Room" Xander was contemplating "V for Vendetta" and how he would have been singled out for being so tall and gay. This one, it's a rape and murder (or series of them).

Nothing symbolic, or linking them (I don't think) but interesting that I chose to read two books set in different time periods that mentioned this same event.

LOL - Guy Fawkes Day seems to have lost its significance quite a long time ago. Shame that. Sort of how yule and All Hallows Eve have been appropriated for other uses and are simply excuses now for drunken revelry (or were absconded to celebrate a birth that didn't actually happen at that time).

What will Oliver do instead? As good as he is at 'reading people & situations' he'd make an excellent investigator himself. Maybe a PI?

'Interfered with' - such an innocuous term for such an horrific, horribly violent attack.

"The control he allowed Robert." Ok, nice save later down page. I was starting to get irate...

"Robert would always be the man in control." Uh, no. Court is the man you've given YOUR control over to. No matter what that shitty movie and worse fanfic-turned horrible book series says -- THE SUB is ALWAYS the one with the power in a true BDSM situation. Otherwise, it's assault and you just don't know any better because you've been brainwashed by pop culture to think it's sexxxeh.
