Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Eventually, the bombings stop, and Liesel tells Jakob to buy them tickets for the first train leaving the station. He comes back with tickets to Switzerland, telling them that they were the last available ones. When the train arrives, Meg and the Durands must fight through the panicked crowd to get on board, but they eventually find themselves on their way to Switzerland.
A conductor enters the car the fugitives are in and starts checking everyone’s papers. The Durands have their fake papers, but Meg realizes that she left her own at home. When the conductor mentions that the train will be searched at the next stop, the young girl decides to find a place to hide. She finds a bathroom that is locked for repairs after partisans damaged it, and she sneaks inside. The floor has a gaping hole, and one of the walls is damaged, leaving a hole just big enough for her to hide with Captain Stewart’s backpack. Meg then feels the train stop, and the search begins.
A soldier comes in to search through the locked bathroom, but he does not find Meg. The young girl waits until it is safe to come out of her hiding place, bringing the backpack with her.
