is closer in age to her stepmother than her father is. He's got a heart
problem and refuses to take his medication. He bursts out in anger unexpectedly,

Heron that feeds at the marsh. As she observes the slow movements, she
catches sight of and begins her careful study of Tucker, the boy across
the pond whose bow and arrow she discovered on the island. |
