Christmas Eve from JB's Twitter (no news, just fun)

At most it will be a token appearance like in book 7. She is likely to be still recuperating in the hospital or at home. When PT went down Harry won't tell her at all, not while Murphy is injured. Doing so is the same as Harry killing Murphy with his own hands. Harry is not that stupid.
BTW: about the "Murphy's funeral" thing. Does JB mentioned Murphy's funeral or Karrin's Funeral?
If it is Murphy's funeral, it is entirely possible it is the deaths of members of the Murphy clan. Thousands died in PT and since a lot of the Murphies serve as law enforcements. Well, it is entirely possible that some of them had fallen. This could explain why Karrin is not there during Christmas . She is with her own clan.

It is just Murphy’s ex. Of course because he was also Karen’s brother in law her sister is in tears and the whole family has to be there. Karen brings Harry along so it is socially very awkward.

Didn't I just post exactly that? :o
That is what you call a Christmas Gift. It must have put a dent in her account with 8 zeros in it. :) Mab will be cross if she gets overdrawn.

I think she did it because it was the only thing she could do... She cannot change what happened, all she could do was bring what relief [pay the bills] as was in her power. If her aim was to mitigate Harry's natural tendency towards feeling guilt and responsibility for it all, it's success was very limited.

I think he was visiting because in Jury Duty he was moving into Molly's apartment from the island to make a home for Maggie... We know as of the end of Skin Game that Molly was looking to buy a house in the neighborhood that her parents live in. So unless he lost the apartment for some reason in Peace Talks or some other reason, I think he is just spending Christmas Eve and Christmas with the Carpenters.. Which makes sense, given the level of his grief and the closeness that both he and Maggie have with the Carpenters.

--- Quote ---I am ok about Murphy but the idea I've got is that Harry was living with the Carpenters, probably as an aftermath of whatever happened in PT. Anyway, I have no reason to believe Mister is living with Harry again, he was with Murphy last time I knew (there is a quote about Maggie feeding Mister broccoli, but they told me it was an invention).
--- End quote ---
But Murphy did offer to give Mister back in the beginning of Skin Game but Harry said no because he thought that since Mister was getting on in years he'd be better off at Murphy's house as opposed to his current quarters on the Island, where he was living up until that point even though Molly had a room set up for him in her apartment, where apparently she was still living... But that must have changed because at the end of Skin Game she talked of buying a place in her old neighborhood to protect her family better.
