Selected Statements
bioluminescent trace residue consistent with prolonged radium exposure. The body is essentially annotating itself. Efficient.
Arthur Roeder, factory manager according to the wallet in the vehicle, driver's license, library card, a coupon for a pretzel. A coupon for a pretzel? Expired. He almost made it. Also, he is clutching a script.
Radium Girls, handwritten margin notes. Not his handwriting. Whoever was meant to play him had been learning the part. They were close. Notes through act two, scene three.
