Summary
Apollo likes the familiar. After the roller coaster of the UR-1 retrial following Clay's death, a regular routine is so comfortable that it's practically addictive. It's hard to stave off the lingering sense of stagnation that begins to settle in as the months go on, though, and he supposes it had to be only a matter of time before old wounds opened again.
The attempted murder of a well-known editor has Apollo defending the author who is the only suspect, but the seemingly cut and dry case is not as simple as it seems. Meanwhile, his mind is racing, Trucy is hard at work preparing plans for her father's birthday party, Athena is ever the over-attentive psycho-analyst, and he and Klavier keep managing to wind up in close quarters.
It's hard to work a case with his emotions getting in the way, and even harder when everyone around him seems to be revisiting painful memories at the same time.
