"Wait, Armand, he heard behind him but kept walking, ignoring the calls. Then he remembered what Emile had meant to him and still did. Did this one bad thing wipe everything else out?That was the danger. Not that betrayals happened, not that cruel things happened, but that they could outweigh all the good. That we could forget the good and only remember the bad.But not today. Gamache stopped."

By now he realized there was no hiding. It would always be there, and always find him. He was the monster."

I salute you.'Clara narrowed her eyes and glared at Myrna whose smile went from ear to ear."
