Chapter 40 Summary: “Lucy”

Ben calls Lucy over to his hotel room again. She comes across some of his notes for the podcast with different theories about Savvy’s murder, and the theory that Lucy murdered Savvy is fleshed out more than the others. Lucy thinks Ben believes she did it, but Ben refutes this, explaining these are old notes; his mind is not made up. He also calls her out about still withholding certain details. Lucy goes quiet, and when Ben asks her what is on her mind, she reveals she is thinking about killing him.

Interlude 25 Summary: “Listen for the Lie Podcast with Ben Owens: Episode 7—‘The Truth About Lucy’”

On the seventh episode of the podcast, Ben interviews Lucy, who describes her side of things to the public for the first time. The last thing she remembers on the day of the wedding is leaving home; the next thing she knew, she was walking on the side of the road covered in dirt and blood. When the police took her in, she kept asking where Savvy was. Lucy believes this means that perhaps she didn’t kill Savvy after all. Lucy denies ever having gotten into a violent altercation with Savvy, or that Savvy could have ever been violent herself.
