Postmark from Shea Heights, Newfoundland and Labrador -- the easternmost post office in Canada.

 

Arrived 24 July 2014, 22 days for the round trip -- 12 days to get there, 10 days to get back. This was mailed back to me without a self-addressed envelope as I wanted any marking to show any routing of the mail.

On New Year's Eve, 1989, Father Perry Burns is sitting in his study, accompanied by a mysterious stranger. Perry has just received a letter from his former sweetheart, whom he jilted years earlier after making a terrible decision. He joined the priesthood to hide from his emotions, but now he finds himself recalling, almost reliving, his checkered past. Will the mysterious stranger win the fight for Father Burns' soul, or will the struggling priest denounce his false life and return to Baltimore to answer to the woman he has always loved? This gripping, dramatic romance novella cleverly borrows imagery from horror and fantasy genres.
