Detective Barbara Havers made a mistake and now seeks redemption. A lead on a Cambridge murder gives Barbara a chance to make amends and she goes for it. Elizabeth George writes all about it in her crime novel, A Banquet of Consequences. She appropriated the title from R. L. Stevenson’s famous quote “Sooner or later everyone sits down to a banquet of consequences.” The idea is much the same as “A man reaps what he sows” (Galatians 6:7) In other words, our lives are the cumulative result of all the choices we’ve made.
And we spend our days sowing, reaping, and gleaning.
