In Do the Wrong Thing, Ava learns that she’s in the 0.2% of the population for hand-eye coordination but is too timid to leave Arbour for a graphic design course. Instead, she joins the army. 

In dystopian novel, Without Repentance, Heather revisits our intro to Chief Investigator, Gillian, as she presents to a conference describing the nuclear bomb that destroyed most of earth, leaving oxygen levels dangerously low. (Yes, much improved, Heather!)

In psychological thriller novel, The Second Undoing of Marlowe Pourer, “sociopath and monster” Mr. Pourer fakes his own suicide and leaves town. There's a wrinkle, though. On the bridge where he leaves his shoes and suicide note, another man does the same.
