Why widows and single women make good characters

Have you ever noticed that most Disney cartoon heroes or heroines lost their mothers? I think it is for the same reason that widows and single women make such interesting characters. Mothers and husbands tend to  protect--but that protection is a hindrance to the storyteller.
The second novel in the Lies series has a tentative title of Surface Lies . It is going to involve a Civil War diary that contains information that may threaten waterfront development in the 21st century, and of course Sandi will continue as the heroine. I am still working on the details, but I am thinking about posting some chapters as I write and soliciting feedback. Any thoughts?
