Oh, when Father brought the shovel about his head and then down, I almost gasped out loud! So relieved it was only a figment, for now at least!

Yeah, that was when I really felt like I knew Father Dolan. He’s so very human!

Liz, I finished the chapter and it was wonderful. The contents of the box was masterfully described in its horrendous beauty. Now, we have an incredible mystery ahead. Excellent beginning.

Liz, I just finished the first half of "Tongues: Part 1" and I'm hooked. The whole concept of an 'entity' appearing in a church and taking on the form of an angel already has me asking myself - what is its true form, if any? I had to stop in order to tutor my godson, but I'll be back to finish. Great so far!

Thanks, Sandy! I’m so happy you’re hooked! Part 2 will arrive on the upcoming weekend. The story is evolving as I write it and scratch around in bins of research materials, so I am on this ride with you!
