S1E4: The Red Car : Part One. In this two part episode we examine the bricolage involved in the construction of a novel-in-progress stolen from Jack by sleeveens working the trains in the Netherlands.

(In case you’re curious: in The Dictionary of Newfoundland English a sleeveen is a sly deceitful man; a mean fellow; a rascal.)

This model of Mercede’s plays a pivotal role in each of the characters lives. Colin owned this exact model.

Aerial view: of the Galata Bridge from the European side of Istanbul across the Bosphorus to the Asian side.

In the dream, when Colin stopped at the lights just before the Galata Bridge and waited to cross to the Asian side, Aysin, Musa and Tal each open one of the passengers doors and g0t into The Red Car with him.

On a trip in London Jack discovered this derelict red Mercedes parked in a lot beside a riverboat community located adjacent to the bridge in Kingston-Upon-Thames. Before visiting the site he had imagined Colin’s former girlfriend living in a one of the riverboats parked near a site like this.

A houseboat on the Thames like the one in which Colin’s former girlfriend might have lived.

A garden on the Thames immediately beside where the derelict Red Car was discovered.
