Chapter 46 Summary: “Monday, October 29, 2012, 4:57 pm”

Sky tells her father that she remembers the night he comforted her when she was sick before her mother died. Her father assures her he always loved her. She begs him now to be honest with her so that she can begin to heal her life. Her father admits he also violated his own little sister years before and the little girl who lived next door. Sky realizes he is talking about Holder’s sister Les. Holder is shocked. He shoves Sky aside and heads for her father. But he is stopped when the father pulls his service revolver. The father pulls out his radio and calls in an officer down. Before Sky can do anything, he puts the revolver against his head and pulls the trigger. As sirens are heard in the distance, Holder directs Sky that they have to leave.
