Long Answer

1. People in Kiewarra see Luke as a larger-than-life character who is in some ways good and admired and in others conniving and wicked. Falk wonders if Luke may have killed a baby rabbit at the beginning of the novel. He also wonders if Luke could have been responsible for Ellie’s death, because he came up with the alibi and never told Falk why. Luke is also characterized as self-serving. He played mean jokes on people, such as pretending to fall off a cliff. He seemed to play games with Gretchen because he wanted to have a relationship with Ellie, and he broke off his relationship with Gretchen as soon as he met Karen. Luke is also described by Falk as an ally and loyal to a fault.
