Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Angel goes to the lake, one of the spots indicated on Trudette’s map, and smokes marijuana there. She returns to the Blue House, unloading groceries and organizing the bathroom. She starts cleaning out the house, starting with the hallway closet. In the closet, she finds stacks of photographs and looks at all of them. Later, she thinks about Rusty, Finn, and Wyatt, angry that they have not found Odette or Trumanell. She has a craving for a recipe her mother used to make and decides to look in the Betty Crocker cookbook for it.
Angel opens the cookbook and sees all of Odette’s notes and photographs of the crime scene at the Branson house, and she vomits. She suddenly realizes that moving into the Blue House could draw attention to her, and she fears her father finding her. After dark, she leaves the Blue House, making noise so people know she is leaving. She hides her car a mile away and runs back to the house. She calls Finn to update him on her progress in cleaning and asks if she can keep the cookbook; Finn says yes (the implication being that he does not know what is in it).
