...Summary...

More past and secret are being revealed creating a more deeper understanding to the book. Finch so far mentioned her first friend, which is a ghost, who helped her have a more understanding of her scar. But also recalled that the Mediator told other ghosts, Finch belong with them since she received her scars. Finch becomes more curious of Blott and she suspects that Blott is not a man...
