Chapter 30 Summary

As Kevin sits on his porch, Karen Feldman crosses the street to tell him about Gladys Feldman’s death and to ask after Erin. Karen reveals that Erin had been good friends with her parents, and that her “mom told me that she reminded her of Katie” (241). Katie was Karen’s younger sister who died six years ago. Kevin already suspected that Erin had stolen the identity of a deceased person, but he couldn’t figure out where she might have gotten the necessary documents. With the information Karen gave him, he calls a cop in another precinct and has him run the name. Within a day he learns Katie’s address in Southport, North Carolina.

Chapter 31 Summary

Katie sees in the Boston Globe that Gladys has died. She knew Gladys was ill, but seeing news of her death fills her with guilt. The Feldmans had been nothing but good to her, and she repaid that goodness by stealing their dead daughter’s vital records. She did it because she knew Kevin didn’t like the Feldmans and would never guess she’d taken Katie’s identity, but it still left her feeling uneasy.

Alex and Katie make plans the following Saturday to go to the carnival. He also asks her to babysit the kids while he goes to Raleigh with his friend Joyce to pick up Joyce’s daughter at the airport.
