Topical Guide 543

Foreshadowing
Reservations Recommended, Chapter 6:
The cab pulls to the curb and Matthew grabs Liz by the arm, pulls her to it. Her eyes are wide. He looks like someone she doesn’t know, someone whose next act she can’t predict. […] “Take her where she wants to go,” he shouts at the driver, and he slams the door, putting his body behind it, and he pounds on the roof, again, again, and even in his fury he’s amazed to see that he dents it, surprised and pleased to see how much strength he’s built at Back Bay Bodies.
“Hey!” screams the driver, and in a second he’s out of the cab. “Hey!” again, but Matthew’s face is twisted, his teeth are clenched, his hands are bent like claws, and to the driver he looks capable of anything, eager for trouble, out of control.
