Question P

[Jonetta]

Did you expect the two cases to converge at some point? What did you think of the climaxes for both?

[Charlene]

Kava has written the previous books so that things converge by the end of story, so that was not a surprise. What was surprising was that the killer of the women also beheaded the priest. He certainly was the quiet, but deadly, guy at the beginning, wasn't he?

I don't know how else the Father Keller story could have ended; I was hoping they didn't get the antidote to him in time, I guess.

I was wondering if the two cases would come together by the end of the book. For a long time it didn't seem like it was going to happen.

Charlene - I kept thinking the killer would put something in the tea Father Keller was drinking at the hotel. He was drinking it in the hotel lobby where it could have been accessible to someone walking through. The killer also could have paid someone to doctor his drinks when he called for room service.

Robin, now that you mention it, that thought did cross my mind, too.
I recall holding my breath, wondering who might have been lurking to do the deed.

[Jonetta]

I had a tough time trying to figure out how these two cases would converge and thought this was the strongest element of the story.

The showdown in Gwen's office was just crazy. Why she never saw Campion's craziness made me feel less confident in her skills.

Right or wrong, I liked how Keller's probable end was handled. It was subtle and controversial. Well written.

[Robin]

I'll be happy when we learn that Keller is dead. I don't think I could handle a third story with him.

[Jonetta]

Me either, Robin.
