Circling the Turtle
ByPublisher Description
What do you do when a successful career is interrupted by the news that you have only months to live? And what do you do when you realize that your work has been your life, that you have no close relationships and no purpose apart from the job that has come to define and consume you?
John OConnors response is to journey to Mackinac Island where, at age twelve, he spent the happiest days of his life in the summer of 1972, and where he begins a search for the girl who befriended him that long-ago summer.
A series of mysteries...who are the elderly women who accept John into their home on the Island...who is Jack the Rapper, the shadowy figure who commits crimes at Florida theme parks...and what became of the girl who was Johns best friend that summer on the Island - are the backdrop for the things that matter most in life: relationships, purpose, and transformation.
