There were no musicians playing that night in Winkles, nor in Green’s nor the Auld Plaid Shawl, nor in any of the other pubs in Kinvara. J.J. Liddy was young, but he was one of their number nonetheless. As long as he was missing, there would be no live music heard in their town.

Anne Korff received a visit from Sergeant Early on Tuesday evening. She told him her story, showed him the punctured bike tire, and expressed enormous regret at not having insisted that J.J. take a lift with her. Sergeant Early assured her that she had done nothing wrong and was adamant that she shouldn’t blame herself.
