The daughter of a former investment banker, and financial regulator, convicted of racketeering, Lucy renounced her inheritance, calling it "filthy lucre," and "the pitch that defileth." At age 21, unsullied, she joined the Sisters of Mercy, a Bride to the one true Groom. She prays perpetually for all who go in Wealth Bondage, slaves to materialism in the Sodom and Gomorrah of the Marketplace in which all things and souls are sold, until our Lord returns to judge the living and the dead.
