The general question of what fibered knots might appear as a component of such a counterexample is further considered; much can be said about the monodromy of the fiber, particularly in the case in which the fiber is of genus two.18 pages, 4 figuresGeometric Topology57M25 (Primary), 57N13 (Secondary)text
