Instrument of Courage

By Donna O'Neil

The flagship fiction work by new author Donna O'Neil is the story of a middle-aged man who finds himself pondering his choices after returning to his college town to attend a funeral. Larry Parker is forced to face all his demons when he returns to Remington to attend the funeral of a former garage band mate.Having no desire to see his friend planted in the newly-dug grave, Larry chooses to take a different road and breaks away from the funeral procession. Much like other split-second decisions in his life, this one leaves him questioning his judgment, much like that one-night-stand twenty years ago in the very town of Remington. That decision saddled him in a twenty year loveless marriage with three children and a job that was not his chosen career in music. Turning away from the funeral procession led him to a dark road in a stormy night where the only shelter was an abandoned building where he confronts his fifteen year sobriety and his marriage.
