She annotates every corner of her script, which resides in a satchel with a Dictaphone, a notebook, a camera, a pencil case, snapshots and any other tools she thinks...
...lines of mourners moved purposively through the winter fog to reach their slain leader's grave. Some sprinkled fistfuls of freshly cut rose petals. Some raised their cupped hands in prayer.
