Chapter 48 Summary: “After”

Hugh calls Hannah to ask about her visit to Oxford. He warns her against further investigation, saying he heard someone in Will’s room on the night of April’s murder. Hannah ends the phone conversation before they can hypothesize about Will’s possible lack of an alibi.

Chapter 49 Summary: “After”

Hannah thinks about Hugh’s revelation through the lens of Will’s recent anger and resistance to her investigation. She fears that Hugh has protected Will for the past 10 years by not revealing his presence on Pelham’s campus. Will surprises Hannah by greeting her at the train station. While she initially wants space from him to think through Hugh’s confession, the baby kicks, and she instinctively grabs Will’s hand to place on her stomach. Will feels another kick, and the couple relishes their love for the baby.

Chapter 50 Summary: “After”

Hannah sleeps well and wakes before Will. Her suspicion about his involvement in April’s murder wanes. She realizes that Ryan, who lived on the other side of Will at Pelham, might be able to confirm or deny Hugh’s account of hearing Will in his room. She calls him while Will leaves to get breakfast, and while Ryan doesn’t remember seeing Will until lunchtime, he can’t remember if he could hear Will in his room.
