<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>A Dying Wish...</strong></p><p><strong>What would you do if your best friend's last wish was to help him escape from a hospice so he could "take care of a few things?"</strong></p><p>The initial dilemma for Dennis Sullivan is not the anger he will incur from Jack Nagle's family, or how to manage a terminally-ill curmudgeon who mistakenly believes he knows everyone. He can even humor Jack's desire to become like a mayfly-one of those nasty spring bugs with a lifespan of only a few days, but are unforgettable monsters. The quandary for Dennis is why help someone that was painfully absent when he needed a friend.</p><p>Guilted into this late odyssey, Dennis soon finds the road to hell is truly paved with good intentions and it takes courage, faith, and a generous dose of anarchy to change the destination. He also discovers his best friend's "bucket list on steroids" is not a tale of self-absorption at all, but rather a well-considered plan to seek redemption and touch his estranged family. And Jack plans the biggest makeover of all for Dennis.</p><p><em>Chasing Mayflies</em> is a "R.I.P" roaring, hilarious journey that matches an intriguing plot with a thought-provoking message that will resonate with your soul long after the story ends.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"In movie terms, it's a bit like <em>Dead Poets Society</em> meets <em>Bucket List</em>." <strong>-Julia Ann Weekes, NH Weekend Editor, <em>New Hampshire Union Leader</em></strong></p><p>"Donovan is a skilled writer who takes his readers on a thought provoking and enjoyable journey, balancing humor and levity with the complexity of human relationships." <strong>-Stephanie Cassatly, author of <em>Notice of Release: A Daughter's Journey to Forgive her Mother's Killer</em></strong></p><br>
