That Patrick in Liverpool sees “Shagwell Cotton Mill” on a cart. And that the scene between the Sergeant, Toggs, and Fred is a replay of the argument between Lord Kirkle, Albert, and Laurence. It makes rereading a joy.

For the reader, it feels like a reward for paying attention and being deeply engaged in a story. I think you did a good job of that with Sophie’s War–I really felt like I was back in the era and the progression of details throughout the story felt true.
