Keeper of the Light. For years, I have known online a lovely author from Canada, Bev Cooke. I rejoiced with her when her first novel was published, and after getting a copy from Grace (thanks again!) and a signed bookplate from the author (thanks again!), I am now rejoicing for me.
Xavier and I read a chapter a day of a book in the morning – we have done both fiction and non-fiction, and we just finished “The Keeper of the Light”. It’s a lovely story about faith and love, with true feelings expressed often, a good grasp of history, and characters that you care about (I sniffled my way through St. Macrina’s widowhood). I highly recommend it, and am looking forward to Bev’s next book.
Hear an interview with her at Ancient Faith Radio.

Been thinking about you, and especially your Mum. You all remain in my prayers.

I picked up a copy at the BC Women's Retreat (great time!!! thanks again Victoria & Juliana, if you're reading). Bev took the time to inscribe it to my hagiography-loving son. As soon as I got home, I stole it :-) Okay, only temporarily, but...
Couldn't put it down!
