Chapters 11-12
When the casket was finally opened inside, no one was in there at all. Instead, there were blankets and clothing to help keep people warm. Why was that in there you ask? Read the book to find out.

Later in Chapter 12, Annemarie woke one morning to find that her mother was not anywhere in the house. She was so worried. She called her mom’s name out in the house, but got no reply. So she ran out into the front yard and found her mother lying on the ground.
