Chapter 11 Summary

Paisley tells Liam that splitting up was a mistake because it’s safer to be together. They call Will’s name and get no answer. Liam asks her if she thinks Will is dead, and she is reluctant to answer. They finish searching and decide to go back when Paisley bumps into an ice cream cart. A panel falls off, revealing Will’s dead body. They call the others, telling them that Will was clearly murdered. When Camilla, Reeve, and Gibson arrive, Camilla retches at the sight. Camilla herds Harper and Paisley back to the hotel. Paisley thinks that she has never seen a body in real life and that it is much more horrifying than online.

Back at the hotel, everyone is accounted for except for Kenna, the cook. Malcolm explains that the rowboats are an emergency escape, but Gibson says that the water is too rough. Reeve argues that the safest choice is to remain there and try to fix the Wi-Fi or emergency radio. Paisley notes to herself that Malcolm is good at bossing people around but has not been any good in this real crisis. Harper interrupts to argue that they should look for Kenna, but she is overruled.
