This final paragraph sets the intriguing mood into the reader. This is the first time the character Edith Prior is introduced. As the reader you almost feel obligated to read the third book because you HAVE to find out about who Edith Prior is and how she is related to Beatrice Prior and the effect she will have on the story in the long run.
