Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Laura wakes and realizes that Pim has gone. She searches the ward but only finds Winter awake and asks him about Freddie. Winter tells her about their journey and how Freddie left with Faland. Winter saw Freddie during the riot. Winter warns Laura that she must ask “the ghosts” for help.
Laura then continues her search for Pim. She and Jones finally find her in the cemetery. Laura sees Pim speaking to someone, but the second person disappears, and Pim claims to be sleepwalking. In the afternoon, Young arrives to announce that Gage and the queen of Belgium will be visiting that evening.
The queen and Gage arrive. Laura watches to make sure no one notices Winter in the far corner of the recovery ward. Suddenly, a gunshot sounds through the room, and Laura sees Winter and Pim wrestling over a pistol. The gun goes off again, a bullet flying just past Gage’s head. Then Winter hits Pim in the face and drops the gun.
