Then again, the text doesn't support much, particularly since Wolfe got lazy with the ending, which seems to be a habit or flaw of his.<br /><br />Forrest D. PostonForrest D.

Cassie is very aware that although the same person, they are quite different personalities:<br />"Who'd want to kill you, Cassie?"<br />"Nobody! Nobody at all."<br />But now, as she prepared for bed she wondered whether that answer had been the right one. Bill Reis was a murderer and Wally Rosenquist was Bill Reis. But her? Did you give diamond bracelets to women you meant to murder?<br />Someone had tried to murder Gideon Chase, and she was working for him, supposedly. And for Wally, who was really Bill."<br /><br />I think Bill gave her the poison gold bracelet. Wally gave her the diamond one and retreived the gold one.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11016802159573871360noreply@blogger.com
