She had done nothing wrong her entire life, and yet everyone treated her like a criminal. Before, he’d only heard the stories, and had decided to defer forming an opinion until he met the lady in the flesh. Well, he had met her, and more intimately than most, and now he could say without reservation that she was the kindest, sweetest, most guileless creature he’d ever met. The Lord made her suffer and still she carried herself with a poise and a grace that belied her fate. He didn’t get it. He didn’t get what drove people to treat her the way they did. Granted, he was new in town, and hadn’t yet grasped all the intricacies of the social fabric here, and perhaps there were truths Eileen hadn’t yet shared with him lurking beneath the surface of this quiet town. But still. Who in his or her right mind would want to harm a wonderful woman like her? No, he didn’t get it. Talking to the policeman in charge of the investigation, it was obvious she was their number one suspect now.
