This section answered even more questions of mine! Avery from the present day went to her grandma’s old cabin on the river to find answers herself. She knows her grandma had some connections with Trent Turner but doesn’t know why or for what reason. She found Trent Turner’s grandson and Avery knows he knows the connection between their grandparents but he won’t tell her. Avery gets super pushy and continues her digging and finds a letter but everything is backward. She is able to find out what it says and I was stunned and in complete disbelief to hear that the letter mentioned the Tennessee Children’s Home Society.
I can’t remember if I had mentioned in previous posts but that is the orphanage the kids from the past were taken to. Somehow the families are connected and somehow they are connected to the lady in the nursing home (May Crandall). I wonder if Avery’s grandma Judy is Mays long lost sister? But wait that doesn’t make much sense because I have heard of the name Judy from the past sections. Butttttt what if after Judy was adopted her parents decided to change her first name? I don’t really know but I have ideas and I want to know like… NOW!
Rill (the girl from the past) had talked about a “showing” of the kids specifically her and her siblings. Rill drops in on the leaders of the orphanage and knows exactly what their plans are for her and her siblings. I would be just as curious as Rill because she is worried about whether her parents are coming back or keeping her siblings safe. She is the oldest and so am I so I completely understand her role in protecting them. I’m excited to see what will happen next in both past and present sections.
