“ I'd imagine murderess trumps wife when defining a close relationship. ”
How easy it was to capitalize on a person’s own bent for self-destruction; how simple to nudge them into non-being, then to stand back and shrug and agree that it had been the inevitable result of a chaotic, catastrophic life.
~ Robert Galbraith
There are always loose ends in real life.
How could the death of someone you had never met affect you so?
The dead could only speak through the mouths of those left behind, and through the signs they left scattered behind them.
