Marsden waited the twelve months out before Mark was to become of legal age and entitled to collect the finances - he then raised him out of the bed and reanimated him back into life once again.
The plan was executed brilliantly, for on the farm Marsden-Mark could sleep late and wake in the very early hours, giving time to still function in the UK as Marsden who was conscious and then sleeping in the alternate hours. It was this way, over two time zones; he could inhabit two separate bodies, without skipping a beat, so to speak.
That was, of course, until the routine bothered him, and he consolidated back into just the one. It just seemed to make absolute sense - he preferred the younger flesh, and this one was a perfect fit - all things considered.
