Four Corners of the Sky: Chapters 29-34

This is my fifth diary entry for Big Library Read. I'm at IDPF Digital Book 2013 today, and Book Expo America the rest of the week, so we'll see if I can keep up.

We finally meet Jack, and all I can think of is Clint Eastwood.

The explanation of the birth certificate and Claudette Colbert is rather charming, but don't you think Jack would have worked a scam on her, too?

At this point in the book, I know a lot about Annie, but I don't feel I know her at all. We see through Annie's eyes, and she's a keen observer, but she never focuses on herself. We don't hear her voice much, and she hasnt done anything that says who she is other thanfly into atornado. The central question of this book, it seems to me, is "will Annie be seduced into Jack's big scam? Will the reader be seduced as well?

Chapters 35-38
