Chapter 81-EpilogueChapter Summaries & Analyses

Chapter 81 Summary

Avery is trying to figure out the riddle surrounding the piece of stained glass but isn’t having any luck. Xander approaches her, recognizes the octagonal piece of stained glass, and agrees to help.

Chapter 82 Summary

Xander takes Avery to the Great Room, where there is a stained-glass window. It includes pieces of stained glass in the same shape as the one Avery found with the riddle. By pressing on one of the octagonal pieces of glass, Avery can make it move. When the light shines through at high noon (“Top of the clock / Meet me at high / Tell the late day hello / Wish the morning good-bye”) the glass will shine a light on a particular floorboard. Avery and Xander locate the floorboard and push on it. The floor sinks, and Avery and Xander are below the Great Room, in one of Hawthorne House’s many tunnels. They are facing a staircase, which also fits with the riddle (“Take them two at a time / And come find me”).

Chapter 83 Summary

Following the stairs, Avery and Xander find a room. One wall has Avery’s initials carved into the cement wall. When Avery walks toward the initials, a laser-like light passes over her face, there’s a beep, and the wall splits in two like an elevator door opening.
