Part 2, Chapter 1 Summary

In a narrative voice that continues to address an imaginary Denny Bloch, Bodie describes her return to Granby. Her text to Alder to check the athletic equipment shed produces new evidence, and Bodie has been called as a witness for the defense, as a motion for a retrial is pursued. Bodie receives texts from her son Leo, Fran, and Alder. As someone working on a podcast and “a member of the press” Alder cannot communicate with Bodie (293). The teenager who checks Bodie into the Calvin Hotel, a fan of her work, explains the layout of the hotel and tells her that many lawyers related to the case are staying at the Embassy Suites in town.

Part 2, Chapter 2 Summary

Bodie acknowledges how odd it is that the names of Granby faculty and staff have become well-known. Despite the fact that she never named Bloch as a suspect or person of interest on the podcast, various internet sources soon uncover Bloch’s identity. Bloch manages to avoid the widespread coverage that Bodie’s then-husband Jerome experienced, due to a false confession and a Medium article written by Thalia’s half brother requesting privacy.
