Chapter 16 Summary

At her kitchen table on the anniversary of Jacob’s death, Jenna looks at news reports of the accidents. There are no developments, no leads. She hasn’t seen Patrick, being ashamed of her behavior and not brave enough to apologize. She decides to take a walk with Beau and ends up at the vet’s office, where she apologizes to Patrick: “I’m not very good at this sort of thing” (156). He asks if he can cook her supper. She knows if she refuses, she will not see him again, so she agrees to meet him in an hour.

 

They go to his place, which is full of books. When he asks how long she has been a photographer, she admits she is actually a sculptor, but can’t do that anymore, and shows him her injury. They go into the kitchen, and he tells her not to open the doors of the pine dresser there. They eat casserole from a slow cooker, and Jenna can’t remember when someone last looked after her that way.

Patrick hints at a previous romance gone wrong, asks about hers. She says she had been married for a while. He asks if she feels isolated where she lives, and she replies that she sees Bethan most days.
