Jenjar:

I wanted to ask the same question.  I just finished COS and I'm sure 
it's not a coincidence.  I reread the deathday party where we meet 
Patrick Delaney-Podmore and I'm sure we will see more of him.  No 
idea where though.  I wonder how aware he was of Sturgis Podmore.  
You would think if they were family, Patrick might have visited 
Sturgis occasionally.  Could Patrick possess some knowledge of 
Sturgis' work that would be useful? (seeing as Sturgis was killed 
before he was able to say anything about his experience in the DOM.  
I wonder to whether Patrick was a good or bad guy.  Any one else have 
any ideas?
