Part 3, Chapter 26 Summary: “Juno”

Juno gets off the phone with Terry and goes to the Crouch family computer to look up Josalyn Russel. Juno is convinced that Winnie took Sam from Josalyn and that the Russel family and Sam both have a right to know. Juno believes Winnie’s motivation to kidnap Sam was that she was having trouble getting pregnant and was jealous that a young woman with a substance use disorder managed to have a baby. Juno creates an email account (hum123@gmail.com) and sends Terry an email that includes Josalyn’s police report reporting her baby missing, as well as a report about the discovery of the body of a young woman, presumably Josalyn—identifiable from a tattoo. Juno adds Winnie’s address and says that Terry’s grandson is at that address.

Part 3, Chapter 27 Summary: “Winnie”

Winnie recalls leaving Illuminations. She felt free: She finally had a positive pregnancy test after six miscarriages, which had affected her so badly that she kept the bloody clothing she’d been wearing during them. She promised herself at the time she would be a perfect mother, and she still feels she can be. She notes that all teenagers go through a rebellious stage, but she has been wanting to have another baby to get a fresh start and try again.
