I'm really curious about what a young Gideon overheard Elizabeth and Chris discussing that he assumed was the conversation Elizabeth had regarding Gideon's molestation claims. I know some have predicted that maybe Christopher was molested and that was what was discussed, but I doubt it. Chris' anguish and pain was way too real in CBY for us to believe he had heard anything about any of his children being molested by that disgusting creep Hugh or anyone else for that matter. That whole situation fascinates me and I really hope that in OWY Sylvia delves in deep in to what went down and the motivation behind each adult's actions and how they handled the situation.

I also wish we could get more insight into Geoffrey Cross and why he did what he did. Running a Ponzi scheme is a pretty despicable thing to do, but I can't help but feel that underneath it all he was a good man and a good father who lost his way somewhere along the line.

Is anyone else really nervous about OWY not being able to answer all our questions or wrapping up way too quickly? I trust Sylvia to tell her story as it should be told, she is great at what she does, but that is a lot to cover. I expect a book the size of those game of thrones books could give us the kind of closure we need.

Hi guys! Long-time reader/follower, first time poster. These forums are what kept me sane throughout that long wait for CBY, so thanks to all of you for being so intuitive and clever with your predictions and hopes for this fourth book and keeping me entertained.

There is something that has been bugging me about the book that I hope you guys could help me figure out. When Eva is going to San Diego and the whole Brett thing comes up, Gideon tells her that she needs to tell Brett that they're married. And then later, when he confronts Brett, he shows him the picture of their private wedding. Here's my thought, if that is the tactic that Gideon is using to get Brett to back off, why not use the same thing to get Corinne to back off? Corinne is pulling out all the stops as a last ditch effort, couldn't Gideon tell her that they eloped and that she should stop trying as it's too late? Why tell Brett but not Corinne? I know a big part of her story is that she's acting out of character and as you guys have astutely predicted, she may be Anne Lucas' patient which would explain a lot. But still, if they told her that they were married maybe she would pack her stuff and go back to her husband and just quit trying to eff everything up.
