When I looked back around at Jo, she was barelythere. Gerry Bliss freaks a lot of people out, Kennedy said. Ten ofthem--November of 1993 to August of 1994. Her small, pretty face looked pensive now, and Icould see a whisper of her grandfather in it.

I took her down to the master bedroom while the water heated in thekettle, thinking there had to be something left of Jo's I could pop herinto, but all of the drawers in Jo's bureau were empty.
