Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Unable to sleep, Whelk listens to the voices he’s heard ever since his roommate’s death, and though he can’t understand them, it’s clear “something strange had just happened in Henrietta, and the voices couldn’t stop talking about it” (104). He thinks about how his family fell from riches and grace when his father’s many crimes were exposed and how his roommate died when they performed the ritual to wake the ley line because Whelk was desperate to find Glendower and make a wish.
Blue wakes to her mother and Neeve talking about their search for Blue’s father. She reads a passage from Gansey’s journal about Glendower granting the person who wakes him a wish, and she wonders what she’d wish for, not settling on anything. She then takes the journal to Persephone, one of the women living with her family, and asks about it. Persephone advises that Blue find who the journal belongs to, and before Blue can get too disappointed about not learning if Glendower is real, she adds, “Then I think you’d better find out if it’s true, don’t you?” (114).
