Chapter 13 Summary

Daniel and Sara hide under the bed, as they hear the approaching footsteps. The person who comes into the bedroom though isn’t John, but a different man. He is speaking on the phone to John and looking for five thousand dollars. They are almost found out when this character decides to leave. Daniel gets home, and he says then that “the Great Space swallowed me up” (147). The “great space” is a feeling of unreality and alienation from one’s surroundings that is brought on by Daniel’s experiences of stress or anxiety.


The Friday before the game Daniel speaks to Max about the upcoming match. Max reveals that his dad will be coming to watch him, and this is why he sees it as being so important. Daniel reflects on the role of father’s in his, Max’s, and Sara’s lives.


Daniel speaks to Sara, who is waiting for him after practice. She invites him to dinner at her house, on Sunday, when John will also be visiting. This will, she says, give Daniel chance to quiz John regarding certain information in connection with the murder. After mentioning her father, and how much she misses him, she starts to have a panic attack and runs off.
