I thought the Holgerson business was a paper company:I agree, we do not know the specifics of the Holgerson family business, but going by what we learned in the first few chapters, they are in the wood and carpentry business and Zoey and Stefan´s parents are too old-fashioned at work, no or just few computers and such. So the siblings try to carefully bring their parents to go into retirement. It does not strike me as a front for crime, but it is possible.
Still I wait until a Nils Holgerson pops up.![]()
st "Grandpa owned a paper company combined with a small newspaper."
This would make sense about digitising being a problem, a modern newspaper needs to be digitised in a world where everyone is using mobiles.
So I wondered if the reporter in SG was employed by Stefan, which would make Stefan's comments about not knowing any 'Cyrus' be seen in a different light - ie he can't recall any newspaper worthy Cyrus, and he's wondering if Nika is trying to insinuate himself under a fake name and is already suspicious about him - he'll then investigate and wants to meet with Bella to warn her about Nika's past.
Something I thought about regarding Helen - in the previous version the accident was a year ago, this version we can only assume it's long enough ago for the case to have been shelved by the feds, and for everyone to interract as though this is how Helen has been the whole time. No one is awkward with her other than Willi, because he remembers how he used to interact with her more vividly, and everyone else is used to her being mute, guessing her mannerisms.
Anyway, it reminds me of when someone has a stroke and loses some of their speech in extreme cases. THey are otherwise functional, byt their brain can't remember how to speak. So what circumstances could reliably induce a stroke? What the goal to silence Helen or, was her survival not anticipated? Or was the goal to get Willi back, because someone wants to revenge themselves on Willi? I'm sure some of the other people (like Ben, Dana's brother etc) have less fond memories of Willi, and there was a bunch of people WIlli and Leia did unlawful things to (as Willi mentions to Gina).
