Timeline
// PLOT SPOILER ADVISORY — this page contains plot details for The Disturbed.
Generated: 2026-04-24
POV is Rev Parata throughout (first-person), except the Prologue (omniscient/limited on the responding NOPD officers at the Miller crime scene). Book 4 of the Parata series. Burke returns and orchestrates the murder of Marcus Miller’s parents (framing Jerome), the death of Father Kelly, the near-death of Rae, and the deaths of Freddy Guidry and his entire family. Burke is finally killed by the Jar of Nephren-Ka, which then refuses to let Rev kill himself. Rev tortures Dr. Augustin Terry to death in revenge, identifies one of the eleven remaining cult members (David Blake), and ends the book launching the next phase of his vengeance with Rae back at his side.
Tuesday, February 12, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Prologue”] Two NOPD uniformed officers (omniscient/limited) — Miller residence, NOLA (2:12 PM) — Two officers force the door of the Miller home; the older officer finds Ms. Miller’s nearly-decapitated body in the kitchen and Mr. Miller half in the laundry-room doorway with intestines trailing; a small Black boy covered in blood sits in the kitchen with a large gore-caked knife in his right hand.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Acquisition”] Rev (with Rae) — Antebellum Books, Covington, LA (2:25 PM) — Pick up Whispers from the Nile: Nephren-Ka’s Legacy, a 1914 first-edition from a private auction-quality occult bookshop, paid for by cashier’s check from the Order. Brief mention that the State has Search-and-Rescue out for Walsh.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Delivery”] Rev (with Rae and Father Kelly) — Saint Christina’s office, NOLA (3:41 PM) — Kelly identifies the four Egyptian Canopic gods and which jar matched which protector; concludes that the Jar Rev recovered (lungs, Hapi, protected by Nephthys — goddess of darkness, ritual, magic) is the most powerful of the four.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Freddy”] Rev / Rae (then Freddy at NOLA 4th District) — Saint Christina’s / 4th District (4:07 PM) — Rev calls his answering service; Freddy has called urgently. The Miller parents are murdered, and the Black boy at the scene (assumed to be Marcus Miller) won’t speak. Rev and Rae go to the station — and find that the boy is actually Jerome, not Marcus. Jerome accuses Rev: “You did this, big man. I tol’ you, but you ain’t listen.”
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Scene”] Rev (with Rae) — Miller residence (4:28 PM) — Rev examines the scene: Ms. Miller killed from behind, throat sliced down to the spinal cord by a right-handed killer standing on the kitchen bar; arterial spray covers everywhere except a clean spot on the cabinets where Jerome was standing (which is how Jerome got covered in blood); Mr. Miller’s intestines pulled out and watched bleed out. In the back yard, a backyard shed with a torn-off latch — Marcus’s “bedroom,” dirt-floored, with crude blood-finger-painted carvings on the wall.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Revelation”] Rev / Rae — Miller residence sidewalk (5:43 PM) — Rev concludes Jerome is left-handed (pointed at Rev with his left hand), the killer was right-handed, Marcus was locked in the shed, and the killer is Burke. Burke killed the parents and freed the real Marcus — taking him back as her “pet.”
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Explanations”] Rev (with Rae and Freddy) — 4th District (6:39 PM) — Rev convinces Freddy that Jerome is innocent (handedness, blood spatter, footprints don’t match Jerome’s shoes); Jerome will go to NOLA Mental Hospital for evaluation. Rev privately tells Father Kelly back at the rectory that Burke is back; Kelly will mobilize the Order’s contacts.
Wednesday, February 13, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Kelly”] Rev / Kelly / Rae — NOLA Mental Hospital, Tchoupitoulas St (9:54 AM) — Asylum tour with Dr. Augustin Terry (Jerome’s assigned psychiatrist; tweed suit, hazel eyes, golf clubs in the corner of his office, occult books on the shelves); Rev sees a bald grinning man at a fourth-floor window in a “supposedly empty wing” — Terry says no one is up there.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Jerome”] Kelly / Rev / Rae — therapy room 14, NOLA Mental (12:16 PM) — Jerome is dissociative, won’t speak; Kelly tries to reach him gently; one tear escapes when Kelly mentions Marcus. Kelly will return tomorrow.
Thursday, February 14, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Reexamination”] Rev (with Rae) — Miller residence (9:25 AM) — Returns to the murder scene; finds blood on the back-door handle from a small (child’s) hand; reasons Burke posed as Marcus and Jerome at the front door, dragged Jerome inside, killed the parents in front of Jerome, then exited the back door and tore the latch off the shed to “free” the real Marcus. Burke would have been spotted as Burke at the front door — Rev reasons her glamour can present multiple identities, not just Sarah Burke.
Friday, February 15, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Discovery”] Rev — abandoned industrial-park alley, McDonough neighborhood (8:07 AM) — A vivid prophetic dream of a bald straitjacketed man with Burke’s blue eyes leads Rev to an alley near the old factory complex from the Burke case; he finds a body face-down in trash.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Body”] Rev — same alley (8:23 AM) — Body of a homeless man, week-dead, severely bloated. Rev recovers a “New Orleans Railway Maintenance, Inc.” business card from the man’s pocket with “Richard Meyers” written on the back in cursive (a clear plant from Burke).
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Examination”] Rev (with Rae and Freddy and CS techs) — alley (10:37 AM) — When the body is rolled, the right arm is missing entirely — torn from the socket. Rev privately concludes Burke ripped it off bare-handed. Rev concocts a “horse-execution” cover story for Freddy (medieval disruption with ropes and pulleys).
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Release”] Rev / Rae — JPSO Marrero / outside 4th District (1:29 PM) — After the Sheriff’s Office releases them, Rev and Rae follow up the planted card.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Railyard”] Rev / Rae — New Orleans Railway Maintenance, Westwego (2:11 PM) — Old man “Red” identifies Richard Meyers (former employee, strung out on dope, last seen at a crack house on Urbandale Drive in Marrero) — but the corpse description doesn’t match Meyers.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “House”] Rev / Rae — abandoned crack house, Urbandale, Marrero (3:34 PM) — Boarded-up condemned shotgun house; back door pried open; downstairs sofa: a pale, needle-tracked junkie woman is unconscious with a syringe still in her arm.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Victim”] Rev — upstairs back bedroom, crack house (3:52 PM) — Behind a barricaded door, a male body in a recliner facing the window — both legs amputated at the knee, melting into the chair, swarming with maggots, syringe rammed into his carotid; on the windowsill, a torn yellow-pages page with Freddy Guidry’s home address circled in red.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Realization”] Rev / Rae — crack house living room → corner phone booth (4:08 PM) — Rev rushes back downstairs; the junkie on the couch is gone; he sniffs the cushion (curdled-milk smell — Burke’s signature). Burke was the junkie; she was watching them. Calls Freddy; tells him to send units to his house and a CS team to the crack house.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Freddy’s”] Rev / Rae (and Freddy and family) — Guidry residence, Chippewa St, NOLA (4:25 PM) — Rev makes it to Freddy’s first; Janet and little Fred are home and safe; Rev clears the house with Freddy. Freddy decides to take days off to protect his family, depending on Rev to find Burke first.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Bernie”] Rev (with Rae and Bernie) — Saint Christina’s rectory (4:51 PM) — Father Kelly is missing from the rectory, and an answering machine note in his office says Kelly went alone to NOLA Mental Hospital because Terry called claiming Jerome was breaking through. The visiting hours are over; Kelly should have been back hours ago.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Asylum”] Rev (with Rae) — NOLA Mental Hospital, Tchoupitoulas (7:25 PM) — Mardi Gras parade closes streets; they jog the last several blocks. Find the asylum dark, gates open, Kelly’s VW Beetle parked, Terry’s Mercedes there. Inside the dark administration building they find Terry hiding in his office with blood on his coat, terrified; he claims escaped patient killed an orderly during a power outage and is loose. (Terry’s whole story is — as Rev later realizes — a setup; Terry himself is one of the twelve cultists in Burke’s circle, and lured Kelly here to be murdered by Burke. After Burke’s and Terry’s deaths, eleven cultists remain.) The Asylum chapter is the first of a multi-chapter sequence inside the asylum (Exploration, Second Floor, Sound, Sight, Top Floor, Last Room, Bald Man, Hunt, Interrogation) culminating in Rev finding Kelly’s body in chapter “Kelly”.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Kelly”] Rev — NOLA Mental Hospital chapel (10:03 PM) — After clearing the asylum and subduing Terry, Rev leaves Rae locked in Terry’s Mercedes and goes back into the treatment center to search for Kelly. In the darkened chapel he finds Father Kelly crucified to the wall with railroad spikes through the wrists, flayed, his skin piled beside the body and his clerical collar atop a mound of black clothing. Rev is shattered.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Encounter”] Rev / Rae — asylum parking lot (10:18 PM) — Rev exits the treatment center in a daze and sees “Kelly” standing at the open passenger door of Terry’s Mercedes slamming Rae’s head into the dashboard. Rev shouts “Burke!” — the glamour drops, revealing Burke palming Rae’s head like a tangerine. Rev fires twice, grazing her shoulder; Burke drops Rae and lopes off ape-like through the parade crowd. Rae is unconscious, nose broken, forehead lacerated — this is the head injury that puts Rae in the coma lasting until March 13.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Hospital”] Rev — NOLA hospital ER (10:26 PM) — Rev floors Terry’s Mercedes to the ER; staff take Rae back immediately. Rev is forced to get treated as well; while being stitched up he gives a statement to two NOPD uniformed officers.
Saturday, February 16, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Saint Christina’s”] Rev — Saint Christina’s, NOLA (5:05 PM, into night) — Rev waits across the street while a Mass goes on inside the church (the diocese has resumed services after Kelly’s murder); after dark, picks the side-garden door, creeps to Kelly’s office, picks up the Whispers from the Nile book and Kelly’s spiral notebook off Kelly’s desk. Goes to the safe — the combination dial unlocks at his touch alone, with no input. The Jar is “calling” to him.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Escape”] Rev — Saint Christina’s (8:43 PM) — As he leaves, hears Fitzgerald and Crew Cut (Ian) coming for the safe; Rev escapes via the side door (which slams), they spot him in his cruiser as he drives away.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “The Call”] Rev — The Court motel (9:16 PM) — Calls Freddy’s house to update him on the Jar/Burke situation; Freddy answers in suspiciously chipper, slightly off voice (“lovely little family”). Rev realizes Burke has Freddy and the family. Burke takes over the call in her own ancient voice; demands the Jar be brought to a warehouse address by sunrise in exchange for their lives.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Preparation”] Rev — The Court (9:33 PM) — Rev reads the Whispers tome and finds a binding ritual that lets one person tie themselves to the Jar for life (“Y’ goka ya Iiahe nyth’drn l’ Nyarlathotep llll syha’h”); decides he must drive to Pensacola to retrieve a Vietnam-era M67 grenade kept in his office chest.
Sunday, February 17, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Saying Goodbye”] Rev — NOLA hospital (3:48 a.m.) — Visits Rae’s hospital room (Rae has been comatose since Burke smashed her head into Terry’s dashboard at the asylum on the night of Feb 15, ch. “Encounter”); kisses her bruised forehead, says goodbye, fully expecting to die at dawn.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Meeting”] Rev — old swamp warehouse, west of NOLA (4:27 a.m.) — Burke meets him at the open garage of an isolated bayou warehouse; Rev presents the Jar wrapped in cloth and palms a pin-out grenade in his other pocket. Burke seizes the Jar; the lid pops off; a black wave erupts — millions of small black ants swarm out of the Jar and devour Burke alive from the outside in. Rev does not perform the ritual; the Jar acts on its own.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Aftermath”] Rev — same warehouse (4:34 a.m.) — Burke’s gray ape-skeleton crumbles to dust on contact; Rev recovers the Jar and Burke’s blue sapphire pendant, then enters the rear of the warehouse looking for Freddy.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Abattoir”] Rev — warehouse back room (4:46 a.m.) — Finds an old break room turned slaughterhouse: blood-coated, with a steel morgue gurney holding a butchered white male’s body — face/heart/scrotum/liver removed (raven-black hair confirms it’s not Freddy). Rev concludes Freddy must be at home.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Freddy’s”] Rev — Guidry residence, Chippewa St (5:19 a.m.) — Rushes home; the unlocked front door triggers a flare-and-gasoline booby trap; a fuse-trail of flame races to three jerry cans on the kitchen table where Freddy, Janet, and Fred sit gagged and bound; the cans explode and incinerate them. Rev is blown out the door, picks himself up to find body fragments and blood. Burke kept her promise even in death.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Lies”] Rev (with detectives “Rudolph” and “Scarecrow”) — outside Guidry residence (5:42 a.m.) — Rev gives a partly-true statement (Burke’s call, drove to Pensacola for the grenade, found the warehouse empty); detectives accept it with no charges for the grenade as professional courtesy.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Supplies”] Rev — gun shop on outskirts, NOLA (7:27 a.m.) — Two-hour wait for the bomb squad; afterward, Rev buys a handle of the cheapest bourbon from a liquor store and a snub-nose S&W model 60 + Winchester double-barrel + double-aught buck and slugs from a no-questions-asked gun shop. Returns to The Court room to find a typed note from Fitzgerald: “We know you have the jar. Let’s talk.”
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Threads”] Rev — Pensacola (12:15 p.m.) — Drives to Pensacola; commissions tailor Jerry Whitmer to make him a custom black gabardine trench coat with custom-fitted internal pockets/straps for the shotgun and the Jar.
Monday, February 18, 1985 (manuscript date inconsistency: Arúnsearc/Understanding chapters carry “Sunday, February 17” date headers, but the in-chapter narrative places them after “The next day” coat pickup, i.e. Mon Feb 18)
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Threads” (cont)] Rev — Pensacola office / apartment (afternoon) — Picks up the trench coat from Jerry. Saws the Winchester down to a foot-long sawed-off; varnishes the cut; fits the works (shotgun + Jar + buckshot/slugs) into the gabardine trench coat’s custom straps and pockets. Tests in the mirror. The coat is a perfect concealment harness.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Arúnsearc”] Rev — Fitzgerald’s pub Arúnsearc, NOLA (10:41 p.m. — manuscript dates as Feb 17 but narrative position is Feb 18) — Crew Cut leads Rev to Fitzgerald’s back office. Fitzgerald demands the Jar; Rev reveals the sawed-off concealed in the trench coat; Fitzgerald dismisses Crew Cut to defuse the standoff.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Understanding”] Rev — Fitzgerald’s office (10:58 p.m. — same date inconsistency) — Rev reports Burke is dead — eaten by ants from the Jar — and that he did NOT perform the binding ritual; the Jar bound itself to him. Shows Fitzgerald the Jar; Fitzgerald’s eyes go dull and lustful (same look Rev saw in Randolph and Coventry), confirming Kelly’s warning that the Order is also corruptible. Fitzgerald agrees to handle Rev’s legal exposure and to consult the Order on the Jar.
Monday, February 18, 1985 (cont. through ~Feb 23 within the same chapter)
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Friends”] Rev — unfamiliar room at The Court → diner → Rae’s hospital room, NOLA (9:43 a.m. and onward) — Rev wakes in a hotel room he can’t remember checking into; eats at a greasy diner, then sits with the comatose Rae for hours every day, drinking from his flask. The chapter compresses several days (“Groundhog Day”); each night Rev plays a deepening one-round game of Russian roulette, adding one cartridge per night.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Friends” (cont)] Rev — gas station near The Court (Wed, Feb 20) — Daily ritual: scans the Times-Picayune; finds Freddy’s obituary (“Captain Frederick David Guidry Sr. passed away Sunday, February 17, 1985…”).
Sunday, February 24, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Guidrys”] Rev — Metairie Cemetery, NOLA (10:17 a.m.) — Visits Freddy’s family tomb (city interred them in a high-rent tomb “in recognition for his decades of outstanding service”); leaves a pint of Evan Williams under Freddy’s slot, lilies tied with blue lace under Janet’s, and a brand-new pair of Air Jordans under little Fred’s.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Guidrys” (cont)] Rev — The Court room (9:21 p.m.) — All five chambers loaded; “the universe had four days, then five days, to give me a reason to live.”
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Awakening”] Rev — The Court room (11:54 p.m.) — Sticks the loaded S&W in his mouth and pulls the trigger; click. Pulls the trigger over and over — clicks on every chamber. Dumps the cartridges, reloads with a speed loader (taking three tries with shaking hands), fires again — five more clicks. All ten rounds are duds, blasting caps dimpled — statistically impossible. The Jar will not let him die.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Dream”] Rev (dream — no in-story timestamp; immediately follows “Awakening”) — woods clearing — Revelatory dream of Burke (in white robe) presiding over a 12-member black-robed cult performing a flesh-eating organ-cutting ritual on a nude female body; Rev sees Terry push back his hood — eyes wild, mouth salivating — chant (“Llll fahf s’uhn Y’ uaaah ahazath l’ nyth’drn”), bite into the flesh. Each circle member partakes in turn. Rev memorizes every face.
Monday, February 25, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Purpose”] Rev — Arúnsearc, French Quarter (12:06 p.m.) — Confronts Fitzgerald sober-ish; demonstrates the Jar’s protection by laying out a handful of impossibly-dimpled .357 cartridges; demands the Order help him hunt the eleven remaining cultists.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Progress”] Rev — Rae’s hospital → Slidell hardware store → restaurant supply / department / medical supply (12:39 p.m. → afternoon) — Has Fitzgerald foot Rae’s hospital bills; gets an Order sketch artist on standby. Buys cash-only supplies in Slidell: plywood slats, two-by-fours, hand tools, trash bags, padlock, nails, screws, zip ties, sand bags, duct tape, silicone, three Coleman lanterns, oversized work boots (size and a half too large); then five 10-gallon jugs of corn syrup, a hair net, a 5-gallon spring-water jug; cargo pants, black sweatshirt, wool socks; safety scissors and plastic tubing.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “KAYRELA”] Rev — Lacombe, LA (3:56 p.m.) — Returns to the Victorian “Kayrelra” mansion from the Calhoun/Coventry-era case; sweeps away every old footprint with the commercial broom; stages a large bathroom with a claw-footed bathtub for what is to come.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Asylum”] Rev — closed NOLA Mental Hospital admin building (6:22 p.m.) — Breaks into the closed asylum (police-taped, unattended); finds and copies down Terry’s home address from the personnel file.
Wednesday, March 6, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Stakeout”] Rev — Terry’s Metairie home (9:45 p.m.) — Eight days of stakeout. That night Terry’s routine breaks: an upstairs light goes on in a room never previously used; later he loads a bag into a Range Rover and drives west out of the city.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Isolation”] Rev — outside Boutte, LA (10:21 p.m.) — Tails Terry to an old wooden barn-or-church on an unmarked dirt road outside Boutte; Terry, in a black robe, performs a chant (“Goka kadishtuor l’ ymg’ nyth’drn”) at a candle-pentagram on the barn floor; Rev sleeperholds him unconscious, gags him with a sock and duct tape, dumps him in the cruiser trunk.
Thursday, March 7, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Assembly”] Rev — Kayrela bathroom, Lacombe (1:08 a.m.) — Carries Terry inside; cuts off his clothes; seats him in the tub, immobilizes his neck in a homemade pillory of plywood/two-by-fours/sandbags; pours 50 gallons of corn syrup over him to his nipples; runs a plastic tube from a 5-gallon spring-water jug to his mouth, taped in place; tosses Burke’s blue-sapphire pendant on the platform to break Terry’s hope (“She’s dead”).
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Scaphism”] Rev — Kayrela bathroom (1:53 a.m.) — Explains his updated Roman scaphism execution: corn syrup not honey (no antibacterial properties), open windows for birds and bugs, a 3-day water supply to prolong him. Demands the names of the other eleven cultists (“There are eleven more of you in your little cabal, right?”). Terry gives only one — David Blake — and pleads. Rev breaks his earlier promise to slit his throat and walks out.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “After”] Rev — Kayrela → Slidell K-Mart dumpster → The Court (2:27 a.m.) — Dumps the trash bag with Terry’s clothes and his own crime-scene clothes/boots in a Slidell K-Mart dumpster; padlocks the gate with the original old rusty padlock to make it look long-untouched; back at The Court, drinks himself unconscious. Wakes hungover at 3:30 p.m. with second thoughts and self-disgust.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Rae”] Rev — Rae’s hospital room (5:54 p.m.) — Drunk-but-functional visit; pours out his confession of what he did to Terry; Rae briefly stirs and whispers (“Have to go back… Not you. Can’t leave him. Have to… end it”) and Rev recognizes she’s telling him not to lose his humanity.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Terry”] Rev — Kayrela bathroom (9:09 p.m.) — Returns to find Terry alive: eyeless, noseless, lipless, savaged by a crow which still stands on his forehead. Pulls the sawed-off and fires both barrels into Terry’s head as mercy.
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Terry” (cont)] Rev — junkyard / swampy back road (next morning) — Buys a slightly larger set of used wheels and tires; swaps wheels on the cruiser; hides the original wheels in dense brush off a swamp road to ensure no tire-print evidence.
Sunday, March 10, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Questions”] Rev (with detectives “Toupee” and “Mr. Clean”) — Rae’s hospital room (1:40 p.m.) — Detectives ask if Rev has seen or harmed Terry recently; Rev coolly denies, drops the line “Recently?” — Toupee leaves a card; they have no body, no case.
Wednesday, March 13, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Recovery”] Rev / Rae — Rae’s hospital room (10:36 a.m.) — Rae finally wakes after 26 days in coma. Has retrograde amnesia — last memory is being carried out to Terry’s car. Rev fills her in on Burke’s death, Kelly’s death, and the destruction of Freddy’s family; Rae quietly weeps for Kelly. Rev tells her about the dream of the eleven and the campaign of vengeance to come; he conveniently leaves out the suicide attempts. Rae signs back on as his partner.
Tuesday, May 7, 1985
- [The Disturbed, Ch. “Blake”] Rev / Rae (with Fitzgerald and Crew Cut) — Arúnsearc, French Quarter (9:52 a.m.) — Rae is recovering — limbs functional but persistent migraines from her TBI. Fitzgerald hands over a thick manila envelope with photos of the 67 possible “David Blake” candidates the Order pulled from a 200-mile public-records search; Rev personally narrowed in-city candidates to 42 photographable possibles; from those photos he winnows the list down to 3 likely matches. Time to investigate them one at a time. The book closes with Rev and Rae officially back on the hunt.
Uncertain placement
- The exact dates Burke was active in NOLA between her flight from Saint Christina’s tunnels (per The Betrayed) and her resurfacing in February 1985 are not pinpointed in The Disturbed itself; she re-enters Marcus’s life as her “pet” some weeks/months earlier.
- The Feb 15 asylum sequence has many short between-chapters (Exploration, Second Floor, Sound, Sight, Top Floor, Last Room, Bald Man, Hunt, Interrogation, Custody, Interview, Long Night, Dream, Council, Release, Fitzgerald) that the dated-event verification pass did not summarize individually; they are all on the night of Feb 15 between the asylum entry (7:25 p.m.) and the dawn-of-Feb-16 events (Saturday, beginning ~12:27 a.m. with “Interview” through ~5:51 a.m. “The Court”).
- The Feb 16 chapter sequence around recovering the Jar runs through The Court (5:51 a.m.), Hibernia Bank (afternoon — Kelly’s safe-deposit box note with combination), James Kelly (Kelly’s letter), Saint Christina’s (5:05 p.m. → after dark in the church), Escape (8:43 p.m.), The Call (9:16 p.m.), Preparation (9:33 p.m.). Earlier draft of this timeline collapsed several of these into a single “Saint Christina’s” block; chapter list above is the actual manuscript order.
