Angela's Purse

The generosity of the residents of Baybridge never wavered as Angela Coughlan continued her battle with cancer. Their contributions to her local, somewhat unorthodox fund, dubbed Angela’s Purse, more than doubled since its inception. Her neighbour and benefactor was the rock for the community.

Amy, Angela’s young sister, and their friend Charly were a force to be reckoned with. The simplicity of their solutions to the adults’ unsurmountable problems never failed to amaze. When presented with issues of style or etiquette, they consulted the Twins Killfeather, ninety-four years old, well-versed in both matters.

When the linchpin of their community left them suddenly, shock, disbelief, and avoidance overtook them. The common path they trod was splintered. They tiptoed around its sharp edges until in time nature restored their commitment and resilience. With a burst of energy, they forged a new path, one with twists and turns they could never have imagined.
