Only one Terri.
The book quote:[Pg 263] Underhill said at least one witness told police they saw a second adult, on a phone, in the truck while Terri was in the school. Another had seen the truck moved. Later, detectives told Desiree that despite tips, they didn't think there was anyone else in Terri's truck, at least when it was parked at the school. They thought the person sighted on the phone in the truck was Terri.

I've bolded the relevant words.
From the quote, it appears law enforcement placed Terri alone; outside the school; on the phone; in the F250; for an unknown length of time between 8:15 a.m. and 8:45 a.m.
The quote, like a lot from the book, is muddled and confused. But let's say it is so, that would mean Terri walked into the school with Kyron at 8:15, was in the classroom with him until 8:30 (ca), taking the picture and talking to the teacher, then went on tour to the other classrooms, where they were seen by at least one other teacher - then for some reason Terri leaves the school, goes to sit for a while in the truck and then what?
Timewise this just doesn't work. The whole point of the "mystery person" was that they did these things (sitting outside in the truck, moving the truck) while Terri was inside the school. This is half an hour, add the time spent walking to and from the car, while handling a toddler even, and you just can't make both of them fit.
Despite tips, they didn’t think anyone else was in the vehicle.
***At least when the F250 was parked at the school.***
This makes a couple of pieces fit better—such as the sightings of Kyron alone inside the school by both TP and TK. Sweet Kyron. 7-years-old. Trusting. Happy. With friends. Expecting a million wonderful tomorrows.
We don’t know where the baby was while Terri was alone outside the school, but the 18-month-old was at the house when her father returned from work around 2:00 p.m. No matter what she endured, she was the lucky child that day. She made it home alive.
The baby was with Terri the whole time. She was noted in the list given by the police as having been in the school with her that morning. She was seen by a witness just after 9:30 with Terri in a store.
The following helps us know that Terri re-entered the school before 8:45 a.m:
[Pg 38] Desiree and Tony heard Terri describe her day. Terri said she had taken the photo of Kyron at 8:45 a.m. and walked out of the school with [the baby “K”] at 8:50 a.m. She said she had parked the truck in the school parking lot.

[Pg 57] [GZ] told police she had seen Terri take Kyron's photo in front of his science exhibit. That was at 8:45 a.m.

And here we manage to make the scenario even less believable. The only one who has ever claimed Terri said she took the picture at 8:45 is Desiree, and she is also the only one who claims GZ gave that time to the police. This is directly contradicted by GZ herself who gave multiple interviews to the media, and who said she saw Kyron posing before his project at 8:15, not 8:45.
But again, let's entertain this. Terri arrives at 8:15, goes to Kyron's classroom, takes a picture (seen by GZ), leaves at ca 8:30 (another time given by GZ for seeing them in the classroom), tours the school, goes downstairs to meet Kyron's old teacher, leaves Kyron alone in the school, crosses the parking lot, sits in her car, makes a phone call, goes back inside the school, finds Kyron, takes him back to the classroom, has him pose for a new picture, then walks out with him - all of this in 30 minutes?
8:45 never made sense as the time the picture was taken, and the only source for it is Desiree, many years later.
[1:23 First Video] [Voiceover] This picture of Kyron beaming proudly in front of his project on the red-eyed tree frog was taken by his stepmom, Terri, just minutes before he vanished.
Host: What time did Kyron go missing?
Desiree: It was exactly between 8:45 am and 8:55 am.
[Voiceover] Yet the school marked him absent that day. … Desiree claims several people told her they saw Kyron leave with Terri.
Desiree: He was in his classroom. He got the photo taken by Terri, and he, apparently according to eyewitness accounts, multiple adults that can vouch for the fact that Terri walked out the side entrance of the school with Kyron in tow and we know this because Kyron’s friend even saw him with her right outside the school.

And yet the book has placed Kyron's friend who supposedly saw them together outside, inside the school - even inside the classroom. CL would have no reason to be outside the school after 8:45.
[Pg 50] [GZ] left around 9 a.m. for her job at a restaurant. The last time [GZ] saw Terri and Kyron was after Terri took the photo of [GZ’s daughter]. Kyron and his stepmother were walking away by themselves, presumably to view some of the other science projects.

Right, somewhere between 8:15 and 8:30.
[Pg 200] Kyron’s regular bus driver, plus Kyron’s friend Carson and Carson’s sister and grandmother, had all seen Kyron leaving the school on June 4 with Terri. It was true. Kyron, [baby “K”] and Terri had walked through the parking lot at 8:50 a.m. on June 4. They were not holding hands, the bus driver said, but they were walking together. Terri had not parked in the school parking lot, where she said she had, but on a gravel road on the far-west side of the school [soccer field side] where the elevation of the school building and grounds partly concealed the white truck.

And the only source for Terri claiming she parked in the lot is - again - Desiree. The police at the time gave the correct spot - the shoulder of the road, just before the access road - and never gave any hint she had lied about that.
