She always knew the lifestyle was for her and has always taken some comfort in helping others.
Sister Helen receives a letter from a young man on death row just asking for her conversation in his dark time.
She starts up a friendship with the inmate even though she takes much flack from the people who believe he is getting what he deserves.
Sister Helen isn't quite sure if the inmate is in fact guilty of the crime he is serving time for but that is not her job.
She stays with him , making sure he is as comfortable as he possibly can be all while he continues to tell her piece by piece his life story and how he got to where he is now.
