When the Rooster Crowed
by Patricia Lillie, Nancy Winslow Parker
aunted by thoughts of "if only" and "what if," Dante replays Lyra's disappearance repeatedly in his mind until he is admitted to the state hospital. If only Dante had proposed over dinner. If only he had chosen a different hiking trail. "If only" thoughts wrack his body with guilt, but it's the "what if" thoughts that slowly drive him insane. What if Lyra survived? What if she's out there somewhere waiting for him to find her? After the death of his wife, Dr. Montgomery desperately wants to feel that he's helping people again. Can Dr. Montgomery quiet the "if only" and "what if" thoughts in Dante's head? Will he discover what really happened to Lyra? Caught in a web of grief, Dante and Dr. Montgomery both hear the rooster crow. But they must discover what it means for themselves.
