I am so glad you put in that bit about the word “ruse,” because that’s something I would have put in, too. This is fantastic! I have an idea of who the mysterious gift-giver might be…

In retrospect, the addition of the ‘defenestration tag’ seems important. ;) I also love how certain words keep returning in the series, like, for instance, ruse.
