Canning era un temible enemigo —silencioso, inteligente, sagaz—, si es que podía llamarle así, con una peligrosa tendencia a extralimitarse y capaz de formar astutamente complejos enredos. Las constantes sospechas e intrigas provocaban repugnancia y la desesperada nostalgia de mantener una relación sincera, limpia.
