Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Prior to Chapter 1, a Preface shows Jeremy and Lizzy on a rock in the middle of a lake right before Jeremy opens the box. Chapter 1 picks up on the first day of summer vacation. Jeremy and Lizzy are at his uncle’s store, which belonged to Jeremy’s father before he died. Lizzy steals a flyer for an upcoming comic book, and the two head back to their apartment building, where there’s a package from a lawyer for Jeremy’s mom. Jeremy and Lizzy open it and find a wooden box with four keyholes and the words “THE MEANING OF LIFE: FOR JEREMY FINK TO OPEN ON HIS 13TH BIRTHDAY” engraved across the top (13). There’s also a letter from the lawyer, explaining that the box is from Jeremy’s dad and the keys were lost.
