The final evening before your Jamaican cousin's arrival left the Popham Villa lawn quiet above the Thames. I am crossing to Miss Spooner's, Clary; come with me instead of complaining that the evening is dull. You step into this one-chapter preview with Ralph Newton at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Morning threatened to place a new woman, an absent parent, and Ralph's unfinished declaration inside the secret you had kept from everyone but Patience. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
