Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Digging in the cemetery, Sydney and Victor finally reach the coffin of Barry Lynch, the EO Eli reportedly saved the Merit bank from. Sydney brings him back to life, and Barry explains how Eli set him up. Barry recognizes Victor and threatens him. Victor tries to ratchet up Barry’s pain level, but because he was already an EO, Barry wasn’t resurrected like an “ordinary” person and Victor’s powers have no effect. Victor and Sydney threaten to bury Barry alive and leave him there forever. Barry agrees to help them.
Victor and Sydney return to the hotel. Bringing an EO back was more difficult for Sidney, and she thinks it might be “because EOs have already had their second chance” (177). Mitch’s search program is still working, but he has a list of possible EOs. Unfortunately, many of them are already dead, likely Eli’s victims. A few more are still alive, but Victor no longer needs to find the other EOs. When Barry delivers his message tomorrow, Eli will hunt them instead.
In the present at Ternis College, a little ways outside Merit, Eli sits in a history class and watches a blue-haired EO take notes. After class, Eli kills her.
