So far the Rum arc seems more interesting and promising than the Bourbon arc (except for the whole Akai family shenanigans).

Out of the first 15 cases in this arc, 10-12 have some plot stuff, while in the Bourbon arc I think it was like 3-5.

Yes, for all we know, the BO (except Vermouth) thinks she is dead. Why doesn't Gin question Vermouth because there was no body found? Because unlike with Akai's death, Vermouth didn't use a single, small bomb, but instead a train carriage full of C4. With Sherry standing right beside it, there shouldn't be anything of her body left after an explosion. And any DNA splatters or anything that would've maybe been left would've been destroyed by the fire afterwards. Also, did you really feel like Gin was thinking about capturing her all the time? It wasn't even his mission and between Reunion with the BO and the Mystery Train, I don't recall ever seeing him thinking about Sherry too much.

I have a hunch it will turn out to be Shuukichi Haneda. Gosho has to make the relation between him and Kohji clear, and this seems to be a clear link.
