Good point about the weakness of Greening's lack of motivation (especially compared to Guthrie), although I think given the historical context we perhaps don't need very much justification for a Hanoverian officer being absolutely horrible to his defeated enemies.

Broster's minor characters are one of the most consistently enjoyable features of all her books, and we do get some good ones here. :D

What can I even say to this??

:D It's such an unexpected, unaccountable thing... what are the reasons in matters of the heart?... Seriously, nice spot that parallel. Aargh.

I can't wait for Keith and Ewen's meeting next week. But if I've counted right, this will be the last...? Noooo!

They're counting too! We shall have to see...
