During these pages we meet a lot of new characters. First there is Penelope Hayes whose family just had the party. She is secretly dating Henry Schoonmaker who was supposed to marry Elizabeth on the day of the funerale. Also Henry's dad and his wife Isabelle De Ford. Also Will and Lina two of the servants of the Holland family. Penelope and Henry are not really in love but in love with the money involed, but they can't marry because Henry's dad says he has to marry someone like Elizebeth who is more respectable than Penelope, because he is going to be running for mayor. Lina and Will were friends with Elizabeth before she realized that they do not belong to the same social circle. Lina is in love with Will but she won't admit it to him. Later we find out that Elizabeth and Will are secretly seeing each other. Then Mrs. Holland tells Diana and Elizabeth that they are poor becaue of debt and they can only be saved by elizabeth marrying someone rich and so she agrees to marry Henry.
I do not think Will is going to take this very well. Also people are going to find out about the Hallands being poor. And also I wonder is Henry and Elizabeth do fall in love. Also the possibilities of Elizabeths killer keeps increasing.
