I want to know how come the reference to Lyle meeting Jack in
Conspiracies. Lyle says in The Haunted Air
"But a particularly close call when he'd barely out ran on the plainclothes D's who'd broken up thier game" (Wilson 81). And then of course Jack had done something very similar in
Conspiracies when it describes him breaking up a similar game
"With one lighting move he overturned the two end caps, shouted, 'I win!' when no ball showed, then snatched up the two piles of bills and the earring" (Wilson 63). So obviously there is a connection between the two parts. So why was this connection mentioned (probably teased) and then not explored? :confused:
P.S. Sorry I could not find a good exert from
Conspiracies, but I was copying off of
Google Print and it is difficult to find the perfect line.
