Beatrice is a widow living alone in a small cabin in the woods. As she ‘chats’ to her deceased husband and sends prayers for her daughter to be kept safe, her wintry Christmas Eve is interrupted when a runaway slavegirl (it’s the mid nineteenth century), desperate for food, warmth…and love…finds herself at Beatrice’s door. When a sheriff, seeking the young girl, calls to ask if Beatrice has seen her, it’s up to Beatrice to spread Christmas cheer, love and goodwill…to all.
Mark Sasse is a very accomplished writer, and I’ve read two of his books so far. He shows no less skill in writing a short story. This is a story of compassion sprinkled with Christmas kindness and tolerance, and it's a charming hour well spent with Beatrice. ( )
