At the final moment before they returned, Christine gave them a book at the last minute, which bore the title "Tranquility, White Bone, Path of the Dead" on its cover.
Author, Anonymous.
Unable to explain its specific origin, Byrne and Chris could only study this book privately, which was filled with occult studies, in another part of the canyon.
"You haven't read it?"
Chris looked at Byrne with a bit of surprise, an uncommon expression for him.
He knew how much Byrne loved to read, and Byrne should have read most of the books in the several libraries of the Fischer family.
And if he had read them, Byrne should have been able to remember them.
"Indeed, I have not."
Byrne slowly shook his head and said, "Just as you said, I have read most, if not all, of the books in the Fischer family's collection, so the answer is simple. This 'Tranquility, White Bone, Path of the Dead' must have entered the Fischer family in recent years."
"During the time we were trapped in the canyon."
