The Raven Boys Chapter 34 Summary

  • Blue goes home to meet up with Calla, her head full of all that's been revealed to her—you know, like the fact that the boys' Latin teacher killed Noah seven years ago. How are they going to convince the police of this?
  • They head up to the house's creepy attic, where Aunt Neeve has set up residence. Persephone pops in as well; apparently, she psychically knew about their plans and wants to be involved, too.
  • They confirm that Aunt Neeve is there to look for Blue's father, who disappeared without a trace one day. He didn't leave them; he just vanished into thin air.
  • As they go through Neeve's stuff, they figure out that Neeve is famous… but that she wants even more power and fame. That's probably part of the reason she's in Henrietta: She wants to gain more power from being near the ley lines.
  • They also find out that eleven months ago, a man called Neeve and asked her to help him find the ley lines here. She declined, but who knows if that's changed.
  • When Blue looks in Neeve's planner for the name of the man who called her about ley lines, she freaks out: It's Barrington Whelk, Latin teacher extraordinaire and Noah's killer.
  • They're interrupted when Persephone announces that (1) the boys have arrived, and (2) Neeve and Maura are home earlier than expected. Uh-oh.
