Gately shot by the Nucks (p. 608)
the sound of Joelle v.D.’s veiled head in an upstairs window that isn’t the 5-Women room’s shouting something down to Gately as he appears in the street
Context
The veil's first appearance in the firefight, arriving as a synesthetic smear: Gately registers not Joelle but "the sound of" her veiled head. The covered face is a fixture of the House by now; even crisis-perception reads it as an object with a voice. (The raw's "5-Women room" here vs. "the 5-Woman's window" at p. 614 — logged as-written.)
