Gossip started spreading about the death of Peter Coleridge. Many people believed foul play was involved, and they think it was Evie’s parents who did it. News came about that Peter was having an affair with Bev (Evie’s mom). Evie didn’t want to believe that the man she was in love with was sleeping with her mom. But in the end it all made sense, and she was devastated. Eventually Evie was questioned in court. She lied about everything. She knew her mom was having an affair with Peter, but she told the judge that she was in love with Peter, and that telling people Bev and Peter were having an affair was a way to cover up the fact that she was in love with an older man. In the end Joe and Bev were found innocent. They left Palm Beach, hoping everything would go back to normal. We never really find out if their family lives went back to normal. The book ends with Evie giving Mrs. Grayson the $8,000 her father had to buy a new house, and telling her to whatever she wanted with it.
