Subject: Mermaid in a Bowl of Tears - Chapters 34 and 35

Chapter 34 - And Justice For None

"I stood in the street, Jamie," her head came up and he saw her eyes were glittery with unshed tears, "and took pictures like I was composing some storybook; I took pictures while they chained my husband like a savage to a truck."

..."and the government, whether it realizes it or not, is finished, they've signed their own death warrant. The road back is closed forever, all we can do now is look ahead and pray."

1. Who do you think outed Casey to Doherty?

Chapter 35 - Pat

"Pure exhaustion took hold of him and bore him down past worry and pain into the dark embrace of Lethe."

Lethe was one of the rivers of Hades in Greek mythology. Those who drank from the river experienced forgetfulness.

"How could he have expected to remain unscathed in Belfast, a Catholic man? As a human being, for that matter?"

1. In this chapter we read about specific acts of violence against Pat and the elderly man. What are your reactions? What saves someone in this kind of situation? What is there to hold on to in order to save one's sanity?

Girdwood Barracks and Jail - is this the right place Cindy?
