Oooh, this story just gets better and better! I wasn't sure what to expect from the first little bit of it but this second part has really upped it into an interesting multilayered story.
I was more than a little surprised (as I'm sure everyone else was) when Claude of all people ended up being there as well, but I just ADORED Lois' reaction. Of course after witnessing the death threats she had uttered to him by many officials, I kind of figured he was a goner (too much detective books maybe)...anyway, the bit with the fishing line made a good segue into how he was hanged (and maybe comes into play later?)
It's getting better and better! More soon please!
