Chapter Summaries & Analyses
It’s 6:47 on an August evening, and Pip is reeling from realizing she has just killed Jason Bell. She knows that going to the police is out of the question because they won’t believe her. Pip feels that she needs Ravi to help her get through this ordeal. Remembering that Jason has an untraceable burner phone, she calls Ravi and tells him to come to Green Scene without using his GPS while keeping to the backroads.
When Ravi arrives, he initially tries to convince Pip to go to the police, but she says,

They decide to stage a murder scene for a different time of death. Pip believes that cooling Jason’s body and then warming it will throw off the medical examiner’s estimate by several hours. She also knows that the police will keep looking for a culprit, so Pip decides to give them one—Max Hastings.
