Tracy Lloyd is an average looking teenage girl. The reason why this matters is because Brad is very attractive, and his attentions to Tracy flatters her, but also raises her suspicion. She knows that there must be more to him than an average teenage boy.

The two main characters are Brad, the good looking guy who moves to Winfield, and Tracy, a "normal teen-age girl, is flattered by his attention, but knows he is not what he seems." Who are the "good" guys and the "bad" guys is a harder question to answer. Here is an excerpt about the novel from the pages here at eNotes which explains why.

I would say no, the central conflict is not character vs. character, or Brad vs. Gavin. It is Brad vs. the entire world/the nature of reality. Why? Because he can't accept reality. He has denied that his sister died. He's fighting reality in relation to his sister, Gavin, his mom…each conflict with a character is just an example of how he clashes with reality, due to his need to escape from it.

Brad Johnson is described as, "good looking." At his first appearance in the novel he is described as self-confident and brave. Tracy comes to see, though, that he is an outsider like she is. This of course changes with Tracy's realization that he is not who he says he is. Brad creates a whole fictional persona in his head.

Because the climax of a story is the point of greatest drama, the only way to find the climax is to read through and notice when everything comes together. In The Twisted Window, this is very close to the end: the moment when Jamie and Tracy confront Brad at the cabin and the gun goes off. It's so important we get the scene twice, and it leads to the darkest secret of the book. As for the conclusion, that's a bit simpler. That's how things...
