Lee Ann No, that was not Tate's father. That was Tim O'Neil. Tate's dad was Scupper.

Beth Snider Right, Lee Ann. The fisherman who testified for her was captain of the vessel upon which the other fellow who testified for the prosecution worked.


message 3: by Valerie (new)

Valerie Schantz I agree. I thought it was Jumpin. He thought of her as a daughter and knew exactly what happened to her when she showed up with bruises. When it wasn't revealed through the trial, I had an inkling she did it. I was cheering with a lump in my throat at the end.

Deb Desarmeaux I thought it was Tate, there was a part where he tossed her the red hat


message 5: by Hege (new)

Hege I agree, I also felt it was tate because of that red hat


message 6: by Jenna (new)

Jenna I swore it was gonna be Jumpin' and that Mabel would have found the shell necklace with his belongings when he passed!

Wendy Valerie Graham. "When it wasn't revealed through the trial, I had an inkling she did it. I was cheering with a lump in my throat at the end"
YES

Renee I thought it might be jumpin too!


message 9: by ashwini (new)

ashwini Jumpin' and Mabel wouldn't have let her potentially fry in the electric chair if they had done it.


message 10: by Renee (new)

Renee Very true @ Jumpin and Mabel not letting her take the blame...... good point.


message 11: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine Robins I knew it couldn't have been anyone who cared about her because they never would've allowed her to take the blame. I did think it was just some random person, or an accident. I didn't think it was her.

Lisa Mcadams I thought it was Tate who pushed him. That he found out about Chase's attempted rape and stalking. After all, it was his red hat that the fibers came from. I was totally surprised in the end, when Tate found the necklace and poem hidden under the carpet by the fireplace. I guess she knew Chase would never leave her alone.


message 13: by Lisa (new)

Lisa At one point I thought it could have been the sheriff. He clearly did a shoddy job with the investigation, and he kept blowing off anything Joe said or questioned. I thought maybe he had a wife with whom Chase had an affair. Who better to blame than The Marsh Girl? It wasn't until she said she wouldn't plead guilty (she never said she was innocent) that I knew it had to have been her. I loved the ending and how Tate destroyed everything to protect the love of his life, even after she was gone.


message 14: by Haleigh (new)

Haleigh Tate's father was not the fisherman who testified. That was Tim O'Neal, another old fisherman. You might remember that Scupper, Tate's dad, did not watch the court proceedings until later on in the case, when he realized he should go there to support Tate.


message 15: by Mona (new)

Mona Campbell Tate's dad did not testify - that was another fisherman. He only came to court in support of Kya and his son.
