Nick Dunne: Three Days Gone (Pages 103–117 Summary)

Nick arrives at the Find Amy Dunne search center and realizes that Amy probably won’t be found. Nick gets another call on his disposable cell phone, but he cannot take the call in front of the volunteers and Amy’s parents.

He arranges to search the mall with an old high school buddy, two other friends, and Rand Elliott later that night. With hours to spare until that meeting, Nick pursues Amy’s next clue and drives to Hannibal, home of Mark Twain, where he used to work as a Huck Finn impersonator at the tourist attractions.

He finds Amy’s note and the next clue. He reads her sweet words, and he believes that she is using the treasure hunt to try to reconcile with him. He is sad that Amy didn’t try to reconcile with him before it was too late.

Nick picks Rand up on the way to the mall that night. They confront a man inside, who is the unofficial head of “security” in the derelict mall. Lonnie tells them that Amy was there on Valentine’s Day, asking to buy a gun.
