About this title
Synopsis
The company sealed Sector Nine in November. There was a notice, a small ceremony, a photograph in the local paper, and a count: forty-one men down on the final shift, forty-one men up. Ines Duarte has a brother who is not in the house he pays rent on, and has not been since November, and whose name appears on both halves of that count in the same handwriting and the same ink. The seal becomes permanent in ninety days. After that there is no sector, no shaft, and nothing left to be wrong about.
Who this is about
Ines Duarte's brother went down into Sector Nine on the last shift before it was sealed, and the company's count says every man came out.
What goes wrong
The count is wrong by one, and the only person who agrees is a foreman who has already been paid to move away.
What's at stake
The seal becomes permanent in ninety days, and after that there is nothing to argue about.
Why it keeps going
Each episode she finds one more person who remembers him and one more document that does not.
Takeaway
A number on a form will outlast everybody who remembers it was wrong.
