Ordinary Heroes
Sorry that I missed posting here. I just caught up on all the May postings.
Jo, I am so sorry that you lost Ebony. It is a wrenching experience to lose a much loved pet and companion. This was the first I heard of it. You will have very sweet memories upon which to draw after a long mourning period.
Right now I am reading Ordinary Heroes, by Scott Turow. It is fascinating. A young man and his father are quite distant. Upon his father’s death, the young man finds letters to his Dad from his dad’s fiance (she was his fiance when he went into the armed service during World War II). It opens up a whole new world to him. He is an investigative reporter, so he decides to investigate his father’s past (a court martial). I am only at the beginning of the story, but, as always, he engages you immediately.
