Chapter 19 Summary

Mart tells Lena that Nealon is going around the town asking men if they were on the mountain Sunday night because someone saw a group of men there. Mart says that Ardnakelty will testify that Johnny killed Rushborough. He knows that Trey lied about seeing a group of men near the mountain that night to protect Johnny, so Trey needs to come clean about this soon to avoid trouble.

Lena goes to the Reddy house to speak with Trey. They go for a walk, and Trey asks Lena who she thinks killed Brendan. Lena knows what Trey wants to do with that information, so she refuses to give Trey an answer, especially since Trey does not care if the information is correct or not. Lena says that Trey must retract her story about the men outside her house the night before Rushborough was murdered, but Trey refuses because she hates being told what to do. Lena says she will stop treating her like a child when she stops acting like one, which makes Trey angry. Lena tells Trey that if she continues with her story, the town will tell Nealon that Cal killed Rushborough. Since Cal wants to protect Trey, he will confess to protect her, and then he will go to jail.
