Though Lucy doesn’t make an appearance, do you feel we learned something about her from this story?

Other than Lucy not being allowed to go out on her own, I don't remember anything about her.

She seems to be a typical teenager here.

My memory doesn't produce anything about Lucy.

I also learned that she probably had a different kind of childhood because of Justin’s abduction as they were only months apart in age.

It's good to know what happened with Justin and how it may have affected her childhood.

Knowing there's a series about her, I did wonder how the murder of Justin would affect & play into the woman she'll become. I think she is probably being sheltered a bit more than just another teenager because of it, and she's also dealing with the fact that it put a big rift between Justine's mother & Carina. I wonder how the author will use the murder to develop Lucy's character in future books.

Early on, I also feared she might be taken & tortured by the killer - but would be rescued, of course. But I dismissed the possibility as the story evolved.

I was worried about that, too, Sandra.

I concur about Lucy being raised more sheltered than she normally would have been. It was a natural reaction.

Yes, I was sort of expecting this as well as there was something about Lucy spending time online.
