Chapter 7 - Vigil

Happy Halloween, everybody!Thank you for listening.

A fight is the most unpredictable thing in the world.

The world is full of its wicked snares, making peace no option for Turner and Garda.

Nobody parts two rivers met.

Detectives Guthridge and Carrington are forced to confront darkness on its own terms.

Jack Turner chooses the place and the time, and all hell breaks loose.

Turner's hand is forced.

Garda finally makes contact with Turner. Ghee employs occultic guile to predict how he can trap Turner into facing the wrath of Le Blanc.

Jack Turner remains elusive, both to Detectives Carrington and Guthridge who are determined to capture him, and to more powerful forces hell-bent on finding and destroying him. His trail leads to a ghost from the past, the estate of a corrupt retired Senator, and an enigmatic blank spot on an old and forgotten map.

Garda pursues more knowledge of her brother's past. Guthridge and Carrington take a leap into the dark. Jack Turner pulls more knowledge from scraps and shadows. Petey Ghee gains greater darkness.
