Summary

The author emphasizes on the depression of Anna. She is filled with resentment and self-pity for herself. Although she witnessed a gruesome murder, everyone around her discredits her allegations because of her segregation from the rest of her neighbors and her psychological condition that makes her withdrawn. As she moves about the house, she notices that the closet door has been left open. She suspects that somebody has been to her house because she had locked the closet door. Upon further investigation, she realizes that the box cutter has been returned in Ed’s toolbox. This indicates that David had returned the tool secretly without letting her know. As Anna recalls of the silver weapon that stabbed Jane, she suspects that the box cutter was utilized by Jane’s killer. The fact that David would return it secretly also makes him a murder suspect. The author creates suspense in this section as the audience wonder whether the tool might have been the murder weapon used on Jane.
