Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Detective Crane holds a woozy Annie while Saxon examines the body, which Annie declares is Emily Sparrow. There is a gunshot wound to the head, and the coat inside the trunk matches the diary’s description. Annie goes outside and hears Archie Foyle shouting at Oliver saying he won’t make the farm into a golf course. Oliver hints he will expose Archie to the police, but they are interrupted when Joe the ambulance driver grabs Oliver and threatens him. He tells Oliver to stay away from the hotel—that his mother isn’t selling it and that she’s fragile. When they leave, Annie criticizes Oliver for manipulating a grieving woman and Oliver defiantly tells Annie that people always sell. Annie regrets alienating him as she wants to know what information he had over Archie Foyle.
Annie realizes she sent Frances the dry bones part of the fortune prediction when Crane asks Annie why her name is on the shipping invoice on the trunk. Annie explains they were cleaning out the basement and simply sent things to Frances without going through them. She is disturbed that she spent her childhood playing around a dead body. Detective Crane knows she has the file about his family.
