I'm three or four chapters, or equivalent of, into the new book. Things happen. I think I can see what Terry was doing here in what he knew was going to be his last book. I won't spoil it for anyone yet to read it. But be prepared for a big shocker in the first thirty pages. And even this is setting up bigger things still.
