Chapter 14 Summary

Barnaby notices that Wolfgang looks worse, and he and Sagan take him to the vet. Later, Sagan calls Merit to tell her that Wolfgang died in the car. Merit cries, not understanding why she cares so much for Wolfgang. Vicky asks Merit to visit her in the basement, but Merit declines. She acknowledges to herself that she will eventually confront Vicky about her affair with Barnaby and her placebo pills; she feels guilty and petty about the conflicts with her family members after Sagan confesses his tragic family story.

Barnaby calls Dollar Voss from jail and asks Utah to pick up him and Sagan.
