The Body in the Piazza (2013)
“She could call her sister. Her cell was in the suitcase and she had been keeping it charged. Tom’s was there, as she’d expected. It was too much to hope that he’d taken it with him. She sat back down, took out her journal, and turned to the back, where she’d written how to dial the States, punching in the numbers that would take her across the miles to Hope’s cell.
Hope Sibley did not change her name when she married Quentin Lewis Jr., but did some years later when Quentin III came along. F...aith had suggested she add something to her name like “Imperial Mother and Wife I,” but Hope had merely stuck “Sibley” in the middle. She was the exception to the rule that it was impossible for a woman to have it all—a lucrative, prestigious job, happy marriage, and motherhood—seeming to juggle the roles effortlessly, and admirably. The phrase “I don’t know how she does it” was coined for Hope, but, in fact, Faith did know how. Money for a start, which bought a wonderful nanny, who stayed on as a housekeeper.MoreLess
