misunderstanding. Soon janies situation started affecting her school work, and

social life, she became so obsessed wit the situation that she couldn’t

concentrate at all. As the story progressed, Janie wanted more answers, she

wanted to know why she had no birth certificate, or why she didn’t have any

photographs taken of her until she was five years old, she wasn’t ready to ask

her parents about it, so instead she decided to find information regarding her

past somewhere in the house. Janie found a trunk in the attic that was full of

papers, and pictures of a girl named Hannah, and all the way at the bottom of

the trunk, was a dress. The same dress that the girl on the milk carton was

wearing. Janie had a neighbor named reeve, one morning they were riding to

school, and they decided to ditch and drive around. They lived in Connecticut,

and Janie wanted to drive down to new jersey, because that is where jenny

spring was kidnapped from. She ended up explaining everything to reeve, who

found it hard to believe, throughout the sorry Janie was constantly getting

flashbacks of her childhood, remembering random moments with her “real”

cult, and was forced into marriage
