Those stories that just pop into your head are such gifts. You have to take those opportunities where they come!

You were wise not to tag AFWTD. I was racking my brain trying to figure it out while I was reading. I had guessed that the visitor was Lacroix, but I couldn't figure out which woman he would be looking to pay a visit to.

I also wonder what Celeste remembers? I'm thinking she recognizes Janette as the club owner, but still has no recollection of the vampire stuff. I can't see Janette going to all that trouble, and some risk, to release Celeste as a mortal. I have to admit I am still torn between the other two options.

In spite of her comments in I Will Repay, I do think Janette has and can bring people across should she choose to. I just think she would be too concerned with the behavior Celeste might exhibit should she be brought across.

Interesting puzzle.
