Summary
Analysis
New York City. March 17, 2014. Addie has tried and failed to tell her story so many times. Finally, someone listens. Henry asks Addie if she made “a deal.” Addie assumes that Henry doesn’t believe her, but then he laughs a wild laugh and tells Addie he believes her—he made a deal, too.
Finally, it seems that the novel has supplied an answer to why everyone is so enamored by Henry: he, like Addie, has made a deal with the darkness, perhaps for love.
