I believe that the notes or letters passed between Fall and Julius in the novel Fall may be a symbol of love. There is love between Julius and Fall but Noel believes that the love is really meant for him. Fall and Julius pass letters to each other just as they love each other and Noel is the middle man who handles the letters, assuming that their love, mainly Fall's, is secretly directed to him. Noel eventually steals a letter Fall wrote for Julius, keeping Fall's love away from Julius and attempting to keep it for himself, but when Fall says that she does not feel that way towards him, he feels betrayed and acts out violently towards her. After her disappearance Noel hid the letter and forgot about it, just as he tried to forget about Fall and his love for her, and hide what he had done. When the letter is later found by police, the police realize that Noel had become obsessed, or in love, with the two, and Noel becomes the main suspect.
