VL--IV pp. 80ff silent blue and mockingbirds

But she has a son (not completely clear if the son is hers or Flash's).  In addition to sharing her great grand-aunt Lake's perfidious traits, she shares her great grand-dad Reef's propensity towards abandonment.  Reef abandoned his son Jesse, and his brother Frank stepped in (Zoyd-like) to become Jesse's dad.  Reef went on to start a new family with Yashmeen, trading the son for a daughter.  It does seem possible that TRP might have originally conceived of the Traverse-Gates-Wheeler saga as a unified work, opting instead to split it between VL and ATD.  Not sure that was the best decision if that's how it happened.

Since she did not believe in human connection, she now has to rely on The Witness Protection Program...."fed government would take care of you".....Yea, right [never in TRPs worldview]
