In Chapter ten of Mindframe, we revisit Josephine living out her life of rebuilding up in the old hotel. As the nearby lake gets ready to freeze and a massive storm approaches, she and her two dogs have a pleasant day down at Lake Ikunga while they still can. Back inside the Old Dame, they are in for a surprise. Either Josephine is finally going mad, or the things that occur in the darkness of the old hotel are truly unfathomable.
