Published in 2016 and written by Samantha Hunt, Mr. Splitfoot tells two different stories which take place fourteen years apart and each take place in New York State.The chapters shift between being about Ruth and Nat, a pair of seventeen-year-old orphans who have been best friends almost their entire lives, and being about Ruth's niece, a young woman named Cora, who finds herself reuniting with Ruth after having only met her once several years before.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

Adorkable: Cora's signature traits are her endearing awkwardness, somewhat self-deprecating humor, and really not knowing when to be quiet.

Always Someone Better: Cora believes she can never be as brave as her mother was. Ruth proves her wrong.

Betty and Veronica: Ruth (Archie), has to choose between Nat, who despite being a Byronic Hero still plays Betty due to being her childhood best friend and having taken a level in kindness, and Mr. Bell (Veronica), the strange new man with many secrets who shows up to turn them into criminals.

Anti-Hero: Nat can either be loyal and kind or selfish and sometimes even cruel depending on the moment, and generally seems to think Ruth should listen to him above all else, but when it comes to it he actually does care about her more then anything, including himself. And he suggests they turn all the houses in the mountains into homes for the orphans to come live in once they come of age, and he ends up being the one to go forth with the idea. Mr. Bell is also this; he first appears to be enigmatic and clearly untrustworthy, and this does prove to be correct considering that he originally planned to let Zeke destroy Ruth, (which, to be fair would save several other people from Zeke's cruelty) but he ends up falling in love with Ruth ad doing the right thing.
