As a seasoned gamer with a knack for mystery novels, I must say that Section 14 of “A Plague of Zombies” is a masterful piece of writing. The suspense is palpable, and the plot twists keep you on your toes. Lord John Grey’s investigation into the governor’s murder is reminiscent of those late-night gaming sessions where you’re piecing together clues to solve a complex puzzle.
In just a short time, it’s clear that something troubled Major Fettes significantly in the first section of “A Plague of Zombies.” Lord John Grey learns that the governor has passed away.
It appears the governor was not only killed but also consumed. Lord John Grey must thoroughly investigate this matter as there’s a strong suspicion it’s linked to the uprising. However, his investigation seems to be encountering obstacles at every turn.
Breaking down A Plague of Zombies Section 14
In a subsequent event, Lord John Grey visits the governor’s remains after hearing about his death. What makes this discovery particularly disturbing is not just the fact that the governor has been murdered, but also that it appears he may have been partially consumed as well. Given these gruesome circumstances, it’s no surprise that Fettes behaved so unusually in the previous episode.
For John, it’s a mystery as to where the guards are right now. They were expected to keep an eye on the governor, but now, they seem to have vanished without a trace. It certainly raises some eyebrows.
When John queries Tom about what the servants have mentioned, Tom clarifies that the servants are fearful of the maroons. This, in turn, casts suspicion on them, yet complicates John’s duties. Nevertheless, Tom remains valuable as he agrees to assist John in inspecting the governor’s corpse.
Additionally, John inquires from Fettes concerning the whereabouts of the judge. It’s discovered that the judge is currently on vacation in Eleuthera, which complicates the investigation further. Everyone who might provide information about the maroons seems to have vanished. Not only is the judge absent, but Cresswell is missing too, and now the governor has perished. What on earth is happening? We believe John will unravel this mystery, but it certainly won’t be simple.
Could this chapter be used in a TV adaptation?
In a hypothetical scenario where “A Plague of Zombies” was brought to life, I’d say this chapter is crucial. It delves deeper into the main storyline of murders and the probe into the maroons. There’s an underlying mystery here that doesn’t seem to be zombie-related at all. Yet, a puzzling query arises: why would someone consume the governor’s corpse?
It’s crucial to fill you in about the current predicament involving the maroons. The servants are anxious, and those we’d usually consult are unavailable. It appears someone is determined to keep this information hidden, even resorting to lethal measures if necessary.
