The London Times has been updated, so check out the latest Grand Ellipse goings-on.

Shirley feels responsible for Jimmy’s death. Jimmy is, of course, the individual Shirley refused to identify to Oliver Harris of the Times, because Shirley was rather more intelligent than Jimmy and Shirley knew quite well that Finnegan and his thugs would turn on Jimmy.

Shirley didn’t tell Jimmy to get out of town, though; he assumed Jimmy was smart enough to think of that on his own. Shirley is feeling very bad about that omission right now.

Addison and his shadowy employer had better watch out, when Shirley gets back to London. A good barrister is hell on the witness stand. And Shirley has a few tricks up his sleeve to cope with any further incidents along the route…

Incidentally, my guess about a wager is holding up fairly well, given recent events. I’m a little less inclined than I was to wholly discount Vroomfondel, but we shall see. We shall see.

Update: Li is just evil. Evil evil evil. I shall have to ponder Shirley’s reaction to the latest revelations (which I did not know about upon first authoring this post).
