Chapter 16 begins with a recounting of Aggie’s impromptu marriage to Gus. Inti does not like Gus, and she is angry that Aggie made a hasty decision and did not invite their mother. She thinks Aggie is out of control, but Aggie does not care. Inti gets a job rewilding wolves in Denali, and the three of them move to Alaska.
In the present day, Bonnie, a policewoman, brings Inti into the station for more questioning. She tells Inti that they are treating Stuart’s disappearance as a possible homicide. Inti uses her night with Duncan as her alibi, though she does not admit that he went out later that night. She still suspects Duncan but needs more information before she can confirm anything. She cannot find any information about Duncan online, so she invites his friend Fergus for a drink to learn more. Fergus reveals that when they were teenagers, Duncan killed his father, who had beaten Duncan’s mother to death with a cricket bat.
At the cottage, Inti wakes startled from a nightmare. She vomits from morning sickness and is taken aback when Aggie refuses to work with their horse because she believes her ex-husband could be outside.
