Silbergraues Haar, verkohlte Haut und Knochen. Seine Breitling-Uhr in einer rußigen Wasserpfütze am Brandort in Philadelphia. Damals hatte sie geglaubt, ihre Welt sei zusammengebrochen. Bentons angebliche sterbliche Überreste. Seine persönliche Habe.
Silver hair, charred flesh and bone, his Breitling watch in a soup of sooty water at that fire scene in Philadelphia where she’d felt her world end. What she’d thought were Benton ’s remains. His personal effects. Didn’t just suspect it, was certain he was dead because she was supposed to be certain. The dirty, foul odor of arson and accelerants.
