The Dead and the Living

6 chapters. And so much has happened. In such a short amount.

It starts off with Susies murder/rape. So the reader knows what happened, bth no one in the story does. The family refuses their daughters death at first, but learn to accept it.

Then we learn about heaven. That is where Susie is, and she is narrating. So we get a cool perspective from this.

Around the 4th chapter we start to hear about some past. Susies love interest, the family mood, and school. But anyone she was close too is inspecting as a murder.

The most interesting part is Ruth. Susie touched her on her way to heaven and that gave susie a obsession. Ruth and Susies first kiss, Ray, start talking. And talk about Susie. I think that these two will be helpful in finding the murder.

Susies father has a suspicion of who the murderer is in chapter 6. And we know that he is right. But the police dismiss it, since there is no evidence. But I don’t think hell ever give up. I really hope he finally catches the murderer.
