Chapters 22-24

• Blog – How does Mr. Sands come to get possession of the children? Why does Linda trust him? Do you feel he’s trustworthy?

Mr. Sands gets possession of Linda’s children when he hired a speculator to buy her children for him. The speculator was to buy her children and then commission them to Mr. Sands, which he did. Linda trusts Mr. Sands because he has always been there for her when she needs him to be. I believe that he is trustworthy because not only does he promise to do what he can with Linda’s children he also goes to Linda’s grandmother and tells her that he has talked to Linda and that he feels Linda should not stay the night there because “it was the height of madness for me to be there…” (Pg. 159)
