Chapter Summaries & Analyses

Chapter 27 Summary: “Face the Facts”

Two hours earlier, Griffin had woken up with a large bump on his head and a headache. Nevertheless, he was able to follow Cheyenne’s trail to find her. Now walking together toward the road, he steps into a hole and breaks his ankle. Unable to go on, and as Cheyenne begs him not to give up, he tells her, “I can’t. If either one of us is going to survive, you have to get to that road as soon as possible” (180).

Chapter 28 Summary: “A Quarter-Million Dollars, Two Guns, and a Dead Man”

Griffin is beginning to freeze. He hears Jimbo and TJ getting closer; they are discussing leaving with their share of the money. Griffin shouts for them. Griffin says he was trying to track Cheyenne down when he was injured. He had left a note indicating this back at the house as a cover. The men notice, however, that Cheyenne’s scarf is next to him, and Jimbo suspects that he may have done something with Cheyenne. “Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” he states (184). Jimbo then reveals that Roy killed Griffin’s mother and that they buried her in the back of the house. Griffin goes into shock.

TJ proposes to Jimbo that they leave Griffin in the woods to die and points his gun at Griffin.
