“I know he loves Jack and Elsie, but I can tell that he misses me when we talk on the phone. I arrived in New York very late at night and had a long drive before I reached Oakwood. Jack was as welcoming as I had ever seen him, and for the rest of the night I basked in his hugs and kisses and his warmth beside me.Eddie was overjoyed to see me at breakfast and couldn’t stop telling me everything that had happened while I was gone. I drove him to school and continued to the supermarket to replenish... my refrigerator and shelves. Having spent several days being waited on and cooked for, I needed to return to my more normal mode. The early start to the day put me back home before ten with a full day ahead.Now I needed to gather my thoughts and pass them on to Sister Joseph, the General Superior of St. Stephen’s Convent. She is my last resort when I am working on a homicide and I hit a dead end. And it was quite some time since I’d last visited the convent. The school year would now be over at the college, and I would be able to walk the paths I loved, sit in the shade of trees I had watched reach maturity during my fifteen years there, and visit all the wonderful women who had kept an eye on me.Angela was on bells as usual, and we chatted happily for several minutes before she rang Joseph’s office upstairs in the Mother House.“Sister Joseph.”That voice cheers and warms me every time I hear it.MoreLessRead More Read Less
