Quick Peek: 

My childhoodhome had faded in the harsh Arizona sun and now showed its age—rather like me.I’d never dreamed of living here again after thirty years of traveling theworld. But I needed to rest and heal, and where better to do that than in myparents’ house? In a few weeks—I promised myself weeks, not months, anddefinitely not years—I would be well enough to return to journalism. “How’sMom?” I asked.

“Good,” Dadsaid. “Well, you know. She’s settled in. She can’t wait to see you.”

I didn’t askif she’d remember me. I hadn’t noticed signs of Alzheimer’s on my last visit,but that had been a year ago.

“Hey, afriend of yours runs the care home. She gave me a message for you. Said it wasurgent.” Dad shuffled through the mail on the little table by the door.

I couldn’tthink of any friends in Arizona. I hadn’t had any here since my childhood. Myfriends were scattered around the world, wherever news was happening.

Dad handed mean envelope. I propped my cane against the table so I had two hands to tearopen the envelope. The handwritten message inside was brief:

Kitty—Please come see me ASAP. I needyour help.

—Heather Garcia

“She sounded . . .” Dad hesitated. “She asked aboutyour journalism and begged me to bring you in as soon as possible.”
