Thanks Cathy. In fact the State Russia Museum is the old Mikhailovsky Palace. Unlike the Hermitage it has only Russian art.

V totally called it when she thought there was something off about the first couple claiming to be 12! Good to see she’s not lost her instincts. So good to read about her again! Looking forward to the next instalment!

Ugh...where's Eve??

Poor Villanelle retracing her life, her actions that brought her to this very moment.

Luke, this is so captivating!

Just finished re-reading books 1 to 3 to get some context - makes a lot more sense now. Can't wait to see where Eve has gone...

At this point I'm praying Eve has seriously masterminded her own disappearance and she's totally fine and that she and Oxana will go have a good laugh about it after Oxana rages at her a bit. 😭😭

Happy holidays and happy new year Luke! Thank you for the last chapter in 2023. Onwards to what 2024 will bring!

Greatly enjoying this insight into Villanelle’s mindset and inner thoughts between her changed self with Eve and her old solo dark self fighting for balance & control. Even after the time since book 3, V is still struggling with inner self balance, Eve helps fill the gaps of control when she’s around, but of V’s own self control when Eve is not around, gonna be interesting if she’ll share this unbearable feeling with Eve at some point. Have a great start to the new year Luke.

So generous and kind of you to “resurrect” our heroine after her unceremonious end on the show...and make it free to the fandom! I discovered this a week ago after reading your column in the Guardian, and this was a most pleasant Christmas surprise. Thank you, Mr. Jennings! I hope you’ll gift us many more Villaneve adventures!

Really enjoyed this chapter. Love hearing about the landmarks in St Petersburg. I’m back at the hermitage which I assume is the imperial palace🙏
