She then goes to explain what brings all of our characters to Paris. Revealing that the reason is Credence Barebone. Everything revolves around him, and this is why they all end up in the one location. Not because it is Paris itself, but because Credence is currently in Paris.
Rowling doesn’t go into any more specifics. So we still don’t know why they are all searching for Credence, although I am sure it will be something to do with what happened at the end of Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them. She also doesn’t go into the biggest question that many of us have had since we learned of his return. How? How is Credence still alive?
