Questions about Moons Over Soho
Hi, just finished Moons over Soho and had a few questions.
So it comes out that there is a black magician targeting other magicians who worked in the Soho area. This guy (Faceless One) uses chimeras (Pale Faced Lady) to kill Dunlop and Johnson.
The Pale Faced Lady previously attacked the date-rapist in Rivers of London, but that seemingly has no connection to this story? Also, how does the Faceless control the chimeras?
The Faceless One, Dunlop, and Johnson were all trained by Geoffrey Wheatcroft? (Or at least Dunlop was? And was Johnson even a magician?)
Why did the Faceless One target them? Is this a spoiler for later in the series
The Faceless One could be a previous magician who was connected to Alexander Smith (through the birthday party with Larry the Lark's "debut") or someone new. The Faceless One also ends up killing Smith because he was afraid of what he might reveal, or is there another reason?
In the end, the plots merge, and the Faceless One targets the Sisters cause he wants to recruit them for something - is this also gonna show up later in the series?
Sorry for being all over the place, but if someone could clarify these points, that would help allot. I felt like the book wasn't so clear in the plot-merging and overall goals of the Faceless One.
