Let $G$ be a group and $M$ be a $G$-module, that is, an abelian group written additively on which $G$ acts: $$ (g,m)\mapsto g m.$$ We consider the group of coinvariants $$ M_G:=G/\langle g m -m\ |\ g\in G,\,m\in M\rangle. $$ Let $H\subseteq G$ be a subgroup of finite index. I am trying to understand the transfer map $ M_G\to M_H$.

Choose a section $s\colon H\smallsetminus G\to G$ of the projection $G\to H\smallsetminus G$ onto the quotient space $H\smallsetminus G$. Consider the homomorphism $$ N\colon M\to M,\quad\ m\mapsto \sum_{x\in H\smallsetminus G} s(x) m.$$ This homomorphism $N$ induces a homomorphism $$ N_*\colon M\to M_H, $$ which is clearly independent of the choice of the section $s$.

Question 1. Why does the homomorphism $N_*$ descend to a homomorphism $$ N_{**}\colon M_G\to M_H\ ?$$

In other words, for $m\in M$ and $g\in G$, why is $$ \sum_{x\in H\smallsetminus G} s(x)\cdot( g m -m)$$ a linear combination of elements of the form $h m'-m'$ for $h\in H$ and $m'\in M$?

I have asked Question 1 in Mathematics Stack Exchange https://math.stackexchange.com/q/4833018/37763 and got an excellent answer by darij grinberg. Now, in my paper I can refer to this answer. However, if possible, I would like to refer to a book or a paper.

Question 2. What are possible references to an answer to Question 1 (in addition to the answer in MSE)?
