Endpiece

Today, in the interval between waking and being word-driven out of bed, the final twist of Drink with a Dead Man appeared in my head. 

Some months ago I watch a video of Lee Child talking about writing and he said (I'm almost sure it was he) when writing a thriller you "need to ask a question at the beginning, and not answer it until the end" I wrote it down, stuck it on a shelf less than two feet from my head, and have kept it in mind ever since. And, although I sincerely hope Kit Talamantes does learn the answers to "Who has summoned me? And why?" (because I don't have them, yet) there was more to come.

I'm on track for NaNoWriMo2015, but can't say it suits me to write this way.
