Beautiful Graves Part 2-Epilogue Summary & Analysis

Part 2, Chapter 21 Summary

Three weeks after Dom’s funeral, Ever still hasn’t emerged from her grief. Her father and brother have returned to San Francisco, and Nora has moved in again full-time to keep an eye on Ever—a development that intensifies Colt’s annoyance.

During one of Colt and Nora’s fights, Ever interrupts with a lie, claiming that she has plans to visit Joe for the evening. Colt and Nora drive her to Joe’s place, and Joe decides to take Ever to an abandoned junkyard, where they smash things with an axe to release their pent-up anger.

Afterward, they return to his apartment, where they watch TV and get drunk on tequila. While inebriated, Ever admits that she blames herself for the deaths of her mother and Dom. Joe comforts her, and they have sex. Immediately afterward, they feel guilty for disrespecting Dom’s memory. When Ever mentions that she plans to buy a one-way ticket to San Francisco, Joe becomes frustrated at the evidence that she is fleeing her problems yet again, so he storms off.

Part 2, Chapter 22 Summary
