Shadows and Light by Carol Mark. "But all the things I love are here", Dorothy, a refined Southern widow tells her son, George Jr., when he tries to get her to move to into a nursing home. What will it take to convince her it's for the best?
All Aboard by Pat O'Neill. The death of a fellow homeless person leaves a trio with unexpected options that make them ponder if entrenched values of humanity and loyalty cannot have exceptions under exceptional circumstances.
