The biggest factor that helps Tom get away with the two murders is the vivid imagination he has. He is constantly thinking of potential outcomes to the situations. Before he speaks with anyone involving the case, Tom imagines how the conversation is going to go. He thinks so detailed about these imaginary situations that he is prepared when the phone rings. This gives him the confidence to pull off the stunts. On page 239 it states, “His stories were so good because he imagined them intensely, so intensely that he came to believe them.” Without his imagination, I don’t think Tom would have had been prepared to talk to so many different people about so many different aspects of the case like he was. His imagination is the key to his success.
Also, having a these potential outcomes and situations broadcasted, it allows the reader to imagine what may happen as well.
