Summary
When little Raymond O'Malley gets lost in a London church, it is a young seminarian with a serene soul and clear eyes who finds him, comforts him, and speaks to him in words that the boy barely understands, but never forgets.
A bond forged in childhood, kept secret, and fulfilled with devotion.

Summary
“Are you trying to learn how to dance?”
Lawrence turns pink. Aldo’s caught him.
“No,” Lawrence stutters, “Well - yes. The Holy Father has requested … for the royal wedding ...”
Aldo’s heart squeezes. He ignores it, the foolish thing. “You don’t know how to dance?”
“No,” Lawrence says, despairing, “Of course I don’t know how to dance, Aldo, I’ve been a priest for forty years.”

Summary
Innocent is looking out of the window as though he can see something more there than the blackness of a howling winter night. “I find myself wishing for his guidance.”
“If it is of any comfort,” Aldo tries, “He trusted Thomas to steer the Church through the Conclave. He was sure of his integrity like he was of no one else’s here. And Thomas has complete faith in you. You can be sure of his counsel.”
“I know I can. He’s been a blessing.” At the mention of Thomas, Innocent had brightened, but there is something searching in his expression when he looks back at Aldo, like he hadn’t quite gotten the answer he wanted.
Or: Aldo and Vincent discover that they have some things in common.
