Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Four days later, Sage is again brought to Baldwin’s office where the detectives are waiting. Evie, Baldwin’s secretary, has been found dead, posed remarkably like how Sage described Rosemary. Dr. Baldwin protests that Sage’s delusions prevent her from being a reliable witness, but Nolan asks Sage to look at Evie’s body. Nolan has also verified everything Sage told him about the bus, but hasn’t been able to reach Alan. When Baldwin discourages Sage from going with the police, Nolan points out that Baldwin should do everything to cooperate: Evie’s husband accused her of having an affair with a Willowbrook employee.
Sage agrees to go to the crime scene on Willowbrook grounds. She also gives them Eddie’s name and explains that he helped her into the tunnels. Baldwin insists that Eddie has nothing to do with this and doesn’t need to be involved. Nolan, exasperated, demands that Baldwin come with them to the crime scene and give him Wayne and Eddie’s contact information.
Nolan, Sage, Baldwin, and Marla walk across the field to the edge of the woods. Evie lies in a shallow grave with the same injuries and makeup as Rosemary.
