Ambiguous Situation: Did Evelyn recognize Frank and call the cops on him in the end? Was the cop who dropped off Henry suspicious and alerted the other officers about them? Or did Henry's note to his father make him suspicious enough to call the police? A bit of each or something else entirely?

Absurdly Youthful Mother: Adele looks very young to have a 13-year-old son. This is intentional, as the novel describes her as a beautiful women who kept her figure, whilst all the other mothers are showing their age.
