totally agree, saying he deserved it is too much but his ending was unavoidable, he knew that his acts will have consequences and they did.A G Darr wrote: ↑31 Oct 2018, 17:43 I don't feel that his end was necessarily "deserved", but I most definitely saw it as poetic. Hiram spent his life blaming others for his misfortune, when his misfortune was actually him reaping what he had sown in his mistreatment of others. He became an actual victim of circumstance when, in the past, he had been the instrument of his own destruction.

I agree - this is how I thought it would end for him- he would be caught and returned to prison to finish his sentence and possibly have his book published. I didn’t like the ending for him in the bookDael Reader wrote: ↑08 Oct 2018, 17:40 I don't think he deserved to be shot down--if he was in fact unarmed and not putting up a fight. I think he deserved to be caught and sent back to prison to accept the consequences of his actions.
