Wren found the old post office and met Sam, the clerk, surrounded by stacks of undelivered letters. 'Cordelia,' Sam said, nodding. 'She has a whole drawer.' Sam pulled it open. Dozens of letters, all from Theo, all returned. 'He never gave up,' Sam said. 'Want to help me finally get these to her?'

Wren and Sam spent the next month tracking down Cordelia's new address and forwarding every letter at once. When the box arrived at the coast, Cordelia called the post office in tears. She read each one in order, three years of love, finally home. Sam put Wren on the phone, and Cordelia said the words Wren would never forget: 'You finished a story I thought was lost.'
