The Dead Soul
“ The man dressed as a mailman worked Saturdays, giving him Mondays off. This was the only reason why he had chosen the second day of the week to kidnap, torture and kill Mary O’Keefe. It simply fit into his schedule.
Mary spent a few hours in adoration at a small chapel outside Brookline every Monday morning. How had the mailman found out? After Saturday’s Mass, he walked out of St. Paul’s and shook Deacon O’Keefe’s hand. Congratulated him on such a “powerful and heartfelt” homily. “Your d...aughter,” the mailman said, “what a wonderful young woman she is. So devout. The reverence in her eyes. My, my, are you a lucky father to have such a wonderful child of God.”
The mailman disagreed with the Vatican’s decision to allow deacons to marry and raise families. But who was he to question the magisterium’s teaching?
Regardless, he now felt, in the scope of revenge, it had all worked out. Karma, he once heard—or, “the universe,”MoreLess
