** There's a chance they went to rest when [[spoiler: Jennifer died. And Cook might not have stayed in the manor, with everyone else gone.]].

* Also from ''Old Tin Sorrows'', the draugs that attack the mansion are deduced to have been raised up by Snake to seek vengeance on the person who'd murdered both him and them. Garrett expects as many as four such creatures could have risen, but only three actually appear, suggesting there's still one roaming around the estate when the novel ends. Worse, it's revealed at the end that [[spoiler: Jennifer Stantnor]] also murdered three other men whose deaths appeared natural or accidental. This means there's a good chance that ''three more'' draugs are buried in the Stantnor manor cemetery, slowly digging their way to the surface... and once [[spoiler: Peters re-enlists]], there won't be any more soldiers left to stop them from ganging up on [[spoiler: Cook, who's very old and alone, however big.]]

* Hawkes from ''Old Tin Sorrows'' was seriously wounded by an arrow while searching for poachers, then taken into the Stantnor mansion where he expired. Garrett encounters Jennifer, who'd been attending the injured man, when she's looking for Dellwood to inform him that Hawkes died; she's flustered and pale, uncertain what to do. [[spoiler: It's later revealed that Jennifer is the killer who ''shot'' Hawkes, which strongly implies that she didn't just witness his passing, but smothered the poor guy in his sickbed to finish the job and ensure he couldn't tell anyone who shot him.]]

FridgeBrilliance: In ''Whispering Nickel Idols'', Garrett meets Harvester Temisk, Chodo's lawyer, and is immediately struck by how the man's fortunes have taken a downturn. Temisk claims that Chodo had set up a trust to support his needs, but hadn't made good investments. Being a poor investor seems out-of-character for Chodo Contague, until you realize that Chodo has been comatose since ''Dread Brass Shadows'', when the Cantard War was still going on: most likely, the trust was invested in military-supply contracts that'd been a staple of the Karentine economy for generations. Evil genius or not, Chodo had no way to anticipate that peace would break out within his lifetime, let alone within months of his own incapacity, and render most of these "solid investments" worthless.
