The Scarlet Godwins - Nineteen

This is the first of Marley’s unsent letters, where the twisted truth begins to come out. It begins by telling Otto of his prison visits, as they had been foretold. On the first of these, Marley prophecies that she will be able to slip her unsent letter into his pocket. It is part of her prophecy that this unsent letter, full of revelations, will have Otto rushing back for his second coming. As he walks along a beach, Otto recalls how easily Izzy became involved in Marley’s case, and how he tried to resist her ideas about it.
