A deterministic verification script flagged that LLM-generated book-quote pages silently drift from verbatim source text — paraphrasing or fabricating citations even when the model claimed to have grep-verified them. The pipeline must read the raw book file directly rather than trust the synthesis layer's self-report. This is a presentation-layer problem, not a retrieval one, but readers will still encounter invented quotes on the page.
