What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Nope.

Hint: my character is a plain human who kills and is unconventional in the way he deals with the bodies.

Good guess, that's who came to my mind too! I wonder if it's him?

I was thinking Hannibal Lecter too, but one of Gravy's hints was "Is an antagonist (but rarely the antagonist)". And you can't be more of an antagonist than Hannibal "The Cannibal", *LOL* I can't think of anyone else in the series who was a greater antagonist though there are some people we don't like. Also, I think there were only three books in the series, but I could be wrong.

Good points! But who could it be?

All fair points, especially when considering the entire series.

I've often considered him as more part antagonist, part anti-hero.

But perhaps that's just me. :lol:

No, I see where you're coming from. Hannibal is a strangely likable villain.


rssllue - you're turn.
