I have read the books many times and have been following the posts in the community, I just don't often log in to comment because I am usually reading on my phone and to have to type out so many words on that small key pad would drive me crazy:)

Hi LNCronan,

I read your posting and you are getting warmer. Your theory still hasn't accounted for Corinne's reactions to this entire situation. I stated before and I will state it again, that surely Corinne must have know that something was off between her and Gideon. If you recall from Gideon's perspective, sex between the two of them was lukewarm at best. Every time they were in together, Gideon couldn't wait to be away from her. Again I ask you, do you think that Corinne didn't notice Gideon's nonverbal communication. His actions must have spoken volumes with her.

If I recall, Gideon and Corinne were supposed to spend the weekend in the hotel together and not just sex. No sooner had they gotten to the hotel room, Gideon realized that he wasn't going to be able to spend an entire weekend with her. He made a lame excuse and left. Do you think that Corinne wasn't putting all these little incidents together?

I just one other quick observation to make. Throughout this relationship Gideon has allowed Eva to jump to the wrong conclusions each and every single time because of his lies of omission. Could it be that Gideon, yet again, allowed Eva to jump to the wrong conclusion about him having killed Nathan, in order to spare Eva more suffering? Maybe knowing that the real killer was her mother/or Stanton/or Clancy, etc. would be too painful for her to bear, so he let's her believe that it was him who killed Nathan? What do you think? What does everyone else think?

I think Gideon did it, probably pretty much the way Detective Graves said he did. I also think Gideon and Eva are being careful, but I don't really think the cops are pursuing it as eagerly as they were when it first happened. I think Detective Graves won't at least, but it is still an unsolved crime so they will still be taking tips and clues. But a precinct in NY would probably have many crimes to investigate and since Nathan was a crazy low life who would have killed Eva, I don't think the police will be actively investigating. But there are some wanting to take Gideon down, whether they are bitter over things Gideon did or even someone still mad about his father. I haven't thought about this next part before until just now, but maybe Nathan was working with someone who wil suspect Gideon killed Nate.  Maybe Gideon and Eva are being cautious so no one in the press starts to link together the murder of some random guy at a hotel to Eva and Gideon thus bringing her abuse out front and center. There are so many possibilitles, and I can't wait to read all about it.
