Lucy has finally found her bliss as a librarian and resident of the Bodie Island Lighthouse.

To make matters worse, Suzanne picks a very public fight at the local hotel with her former classmate Karen Kivas.

Look it up.
In the world of Google, there is little excuse for mispronunciation of unfamiliar words. Fray-nel lens, not frez-nel for instance. It reduces enjoyment for the listener. So, story is good but 5 minutes prep by narrator would help.
