Would the scene with Armand and Daniel in the bistro be considered a twist? I did not expect Daniel to be the one who had sat down next to Armand after he had already gotten up to leave the Bistro. To read that it was Daniel who had suddenly grown up enough in maturity to have a moment with his father after Armand opened his eyes, was, for me, a surprising but lovely moment.
And the reveal that Manon Lagacé worked in sanitation engineer and was not the type of engineer we expected her to be was a very comical twist that I did not expect at all.
I thoroughly enjoyed these little moments. They’re not “twisty” in the way psychological thrillers are these days, but they still caught me by surprise and added a layer of complexity and satisfaction to my read of The Grey Wolf.
