The Keeper of Last Words · Forensic Linguist, Final Utterance Analyst

A forensic linguist who studies final utterances — the exact last words people speak before death. She has catalogued eleven years of endings. She has never processed the last thing she said to her father.

“I've catalogued eleven thousand final sentences. None of them were 'I should have worked more.' I find that useful to know.”
