This is a fantastic story about the meaning of justice. Constance finally gets to see the end of the war, and we get the first wedge formed between her and Flip. Although the war is over for this town in France, how far should they go to pursue justice? Can we trust the downtrodden to deliver their own mob justice to the Nazis and their supposedly evil collaborators? It's a brave story to examine the morality of what to do with the defeated, and how long we should continue hating.
