Keys of Heaven (2015)
“Church was held that week at Bishop Dan Troyer’s home, on the other side of Willow Creek and down the county highway about four miles…so far away that the likelihood of running into Justin Parker was zero.
She was looking forward to a whole day where she’d be guaranteed a little peace.Though why he should disturb her peace so much was not quite clear yet. He made her nervous. He wanted too much of her time. And yet there was something about him that was causing a little root of compassion t...o grow in her heart—though he would be the first to tell her that he felt sorry for her and not the other way around.She and Katie and Saranne had breakfast on the table by the time Mamm and Dat got in from the milking, and once they’d cleaned up and changed into clean Kapps, their blue Sunday dresses with the white organdy capes and aprons, and their good black oxford shoes, Dat had led out the horse and harnessed him up to the family buggy.
The sun had barely lifted its face above the trees when they were on their way.MoreLess
