To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
What She Does When No One Is Watching — Marie-Claire has been lighting the candles at the side altar of Saint Agatha since she was seven — six tall candles in brass holders gone green with age, bearing the dents and scratches of centuries of careful handling. Her father tends the main sanctuary. No one watches the side altar. The work is the same whether anyone sees or not, and this is what the story is about.
