That was the first sign I noticed that evening, standing still for a moment longer than I should have, staring west. Southern California sunsets are supposed to be beautiful.

Somewhere far off, sirens layered over one another, no longer distinct enough to count.

Dorothy Cahill kept records. Not out of habit—but because she believed what people said mattered enough to be kept. For eleven years, a small reading group met every Tuesday in a quiet Colorado town.
