The details of Flint's life differ between the novel and the game. For instance, she does die in the novel and her father is already dead. In the game, she can live and her father is retired. What is the more appropriate source to rely on? The games came first, so I am forced to assume they are the true canon, but I will not argue against it if the novels are the preferred source.
Can someone clarify what source to use before I complete this developing article? -Aeronautico
