A Goodreads user asked Laura McHugh:

Hi! My friend and I have read your book, she borrowed the copy that I bought when you visited LHS. We were both wondering who Lucy's father was. I thought you left it at a cliffhanger so everyone can think about what could happen afterward, and she agreed, but did you actually have the answer in mind when you wrote it? My friend and I loved your book a lot, and we are excited to read more from you!

Laura McHugh Hi Autumn! Thank you so much for getting the book when I was there visiting! I had a great time meeting you all that day. You are both correct, I left it unanswered on purpose. :) I am not completely sure, myself, but I wanted it to be Carl, who is kindhearted like Lucy. Thank you for reading! I hope to visit LHS again when the next book comes out. :)
