Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

This is the first fiction I have read in a very long time. I think it is a lovely book and perfect for a summer read.

Yes- a great one    I had no idea about the Channel Islands during the war before I read this one. It reminded a little of 84 Charring Cross road, another one I love and should pull out and read again.
