Gwen/Gina bares her soul to Sam, her neighbor. She is put off by his cool response. Her husband is on to her and is making her life hell. Specifically, he has the police investigating whether she has killed a young girl and drowned her in the lake. My guess is that the girl will have been "buried in a watery grave" in a way that is similar to how her husband handled his corpses. Very good book.
Excellent start . . . orphaned girl with a knack for chess, taught by janitor, harsh orphanage despite its courtly look.
