PTSD is what glared out at me, nurse that I am. John hitting the turf at the first explosion....and the interminable wait for the inquiry to begin exacerbates his already frayed nerves. -- LJG Discussion board

In reply to: Jane 's message, "SCOTTISH PRISONER seems a very long way away now, doesn't it? I agree that it is an author's job to leave us hungry for more, but at the rate herself writes and the multiple irons she has in the fire at any given time..it is going to be a torturous wait indeed. Thank goodness there are so many themes and layers, for us to explore. Teddie's example is perfect. I see the time between books allowing us to explore what is going on in the different scenes mean to us. We can "talk" about not only the trail itself but John's disintegration of composure while just sitting in the hall waiting to go in with him ending up with him on the floor." on 08:40:59 12/02/07 Sun

I really felt for poor John later when he makes a little joke to ease the tension a tiny bit and gets brow beaten for it. These guys are out looking for a scapegoat and John looks like the most likely candidate right up to the point where he did decide to walk out and do his own investigation. I like a man with a proactive approach to life! (NT) -- Jane, 12:27:11 12/02/07 Sun
