I couldn’t speak until I was eight years old. Everyone in the Sterling family called me dumb. Even my mother would secretly wipe away tears, convinced she had given birth to an autistic daughter.

No one living traversed any of the three graveyard’s peaceful grounds at this moment, which was strange in such nice weather. All of a sudden a small cry squeaked out, and a barn swallow fell stone-dead from the sky, landing among the chiseled tombstones of Hebrew National Cemetery. It came to rest toward the back near the wrought-iron fence, in the tranquil section of graves situated apart from the others on a slight rise.
