Oh shit! What an ending. Mark, this is so freakin good. Like seriously, I'm hooked. I understand the overall movement's concerns about the deals made, and I also see the importance of tenants and landlords collaborating to create improved outcomes, although obviously not ideal. Nice job with capturing the complexity of such a relevant issue! And for keeping me on my toes!
I appreciate the praise: ) This chapter was surprising to write. I didn't know why I started it with the mysterious sedan until right at the end. Then a larger story arc suddenly came into focus.
