Why does Edoardo Doria (the boy in Caravaggio's 'Boy Bitten By A Lizard') appear to him? Murder! ... Someone murders Chapin's sister. Who? Does the murder relate to Chapin's braiding of time and place in The Snap? Does it relate to a letter he received from an imprisoned killer twenty-two years before? Does it relate to a woman he meets in Las Vegas after his brother phones him with the news of his sister's death; a woman with liquid ink hair and liquid ink eyes or to Azazel who tortures a young Chapin? Does it relate to murders Chapin commits in the Western Roman Empire or during the Vienna Offensive of World War II? Does it relate to a small boy living on Level 109? Does it relate to a TV police procedural Chapin finds himself in? Does it relate to Debora, a woman he knew that he seeks out for help? In The Snap ... Courses.
