There he was, drowning: useful parts stripped away, the empty shell of him slowly floating towards the bottom. Anders hoped the undercurrents would carry the coat far away, and that it might surface somewhere where someone might recognise it. Think him dead. Free, finally.

It's already going splendidly, isn't it.
