Something was getting lost in translation. “You mean voodoo?”

Tara rolled her eyes with a green flash of impatience and impertinence combined. “No. Hoodoo. Like, you know, folk magick.”

I stared at her, open-mouthed with surprise. “How do you know that?”

She shrugged her slender shoulders. “You have your secrets. I have mine.”

I asked Liss, “Will that information help us find the symbol in your nephew’s book?”

“Well, it can’t hurt,” Liss replied. “But it may in fact do us little good unless we can discover who made the sign on the tree. The trouble is, folk magick is so very customized. Symbolism is often specific to a region, a family, even one person, depending on what is meaningful to them.”

So we would be barking up a very large and convoluted tree. But what choice did we have? Someone, somewhere in the area, had a history of magick.

My cell phone rang again, with my mother’s number showing on my Caller ID. I excused myself and turned away. “Hi, Mom.”

“I have the Metzger relief meeting all arranged, dear. Can you get away around six thirty? It would be nice to get this thing going.”

I glanced at my watch. Three forty-five. “Sure, that should be okay, I guess. Tonight is one of my early nights.”

“Ah, good. That worked out nicely, then. You can meet me here and we can ride together.”

As soon as I hung up, I turned back to Liss. “My mom has arranged a meeting to get things started with donations for the Metzger family. Can you get away at six thirty tonight?”

Liss looked stricken. “Oh, my dear, I’m afraid I can’t. I have an appointment that I just can’t get out of.”

“We could reschedule.”

“No, that’s fine. Better to get things started. You can always ring me on my cell if you need my input on anything specific.”
