Part 11- The Epiphany Stone

David stole it from Mr Blanc and promptly lost it – or did he.
Mr Blanc’s brother Edward disappeared in the search to recover it and David.

Part 10 -James dreams (No.2)

James dreams didn’t always involve numbers and letters sometimes they represented a flock of birds bearing down on him with a single white dove to aid him.
These were never construed as nightmares.
As long as the dove was present he felt he could win.

Part 9 -James (lost soul) return to the Beginning

James was found unconscious in the grounds of the Abbey clutching a note with a weird Alpha – numerical code written on it.
Marcel – who discovered James – felt a certain familiarity when he read it.

Part 8- The concerns of Mr Blanc

Mr Blanc and his brother Edward ran the family crime business together, but everyone knew it was Mr Blanc who was the brains behind it all.
Mr Blanc knew certain sections referred to Edward as “Deadwood” but never to their faces.
Edward had his own talents – he was considered a prodigy when he was younger – he just didn’t have the spirit to be a crime boss.
When he needed to think Mr Blanc would retreat to his Gallery and admire his “Modern Masters”
Before he went missing Edward would play simple lullabies on his violin that were so beautiful and haunting they could almost make Mr Blanc weep.
He desperately missed that now.
