The stories in this book deal with singular and life-altering experiences of an assortment of characters. An adolescent girl with a super star older sister finds her way into a world to which her sister has no key; a retired college president encounters an angel in his gardens; an old man meets his two best friends, both long dead, in a bar on "hymns and beer night"; a journalist pursues a dream woman who has haunted him since adolescence; a young pastor is left a large and troublesome inheritance by an eccentric parishioner; a married woman is tempted by a seminary student; a neophyte screenwriter learns Hollywood's realities from an aging actress. These stories and others, most published for the first time, make up this volume of eighteen short stories by Walter Lockwood.
