Hello,

We're immersed into The Scapegoat now, just as John is absorbed into Jean's life in St. Gilles.

Mistaken Identity
John is settling into Jean's life, surprised to find himself husband to a pregnant wife and father to a saintly daughter. He told Paul that his Paris visit was successful, but he's not even sure of the visit's purpose. He's relied on clues from family members and servants to pass himself off as Jean, and so far no one suspects anything is amiss. How much longer can John live undetected as Jean, and will Jean turn up again? Keep reading to find out! [Stay on track with the reading guide.]

Join Our Discussion
When John wakes up to find Jean gone and Gaston ready to drive him back to the Château, he reluctantly plays along, realizing that "[He] was now the accomplice of the man who had driven away, and no longer his accuser." Would you have made the same decision? [Tell us!]

I'm really enjoying The Scapegoat so far, and can't wait to hear your thoughts!

Happy reading,

P.S. Right now I'm also reading My Secret: A PostSecret Book, edited by Frank Warren.
