Hannah Schneider is actually Catherine Baker, a liberal-socialist radical. Ada Harvey, Smoke's daughter, reveals that Smoke was an investigative journalist who was attempting to bring a group of left wing radicals to justice following the murder of Smoke's uncle, a U.S. She goes through Hannah's house and her possessions, and does research into an acquaintance of Hannah's, Smoke Harvey, who died at a party Hannah hosted before she died. While the police write off Hannah's death as a suicide, Blue isn't convinced. That night, Blue finds Hannah Schneider dead, hanging from a tree. Two of the Bluebloods, Leulah and Jade, believe they are being followed. In late March, Hannah organizes a camping trip in the mountains. Blue and the members of the Bluebloods are all curious about Hannah, who never reveals much of her own past. Hannah brings Blue into this group, which accepts Blue over time. Hannah is friends and socializes with a group of elitist students, known as the Bluebloods. In Stockton, Blue meets and befriends a woman named Hannah Schneider, who teaches film at the school. Blue will be attending the culturally-focused Saint Gallway School.
