- Okay, I think there's no point in keeping a pig in a poke and I'll ask the logical question, When did David die? Judging by the stories at the beginning, Tyson said that this happened two years ago, further along the plot it is told that he died either a year ago or a little more than a year ago, but can we at least be a little more specific? Even if we compare the fact that the events of the novel take place on July 15, 2019, it turns out that David died in 2017-2018??? Please give me an answer😭
