Оглавление“I want your opinion on something.”
Ellery tried to hide her surprise.
“I did some very last-minute Christmas shopping. This is for Bea.” He withdrew a delicate silver bracelet from a box. A tiny silver horse dangled from one of the links.
“She’s going to love it, Carter.”
“I wanted to get Bea something just from me.”
Ellery felt tears burn the backs of her eyes as Carter opened the other box.
“What do you think?”
“It’s beautiful.” The bracelet was similar to Bea’s except for the tiny silver bell dangling from the chain.
“Anna said you can return it if you’d rather have something else,” Carter said.
It took a moment for the words to register.
“This is for me?”
Carter nodded. “I thought you might like a memory, too.”
“It’s the wishing bell. But...you said you didn’t believe that wishes can come true.”
Carter smiled and slipped the bracelet over Ellery’s wrist.
“I know. But lately I’ve been seeing more and more evidence that suggests otherwise.”
